Guide for Meetings and Organisations by N. E. Renton Pdf

This book is designed to meet the needs of those concerned with the meetings of unincorporated bodies - voluntary organisations such as sporting and social bodies of all kinds - church groups, debating societies, school committees, progress associations, youth clubs, branches of political parties, trade unions and friendly societies. As far as possible the text avoids legal precedents and technicalities and strives instead to give practical assistance not only to those required to chair meetings but also to those who wish merely to attend them and to follow the proceedings intelligently. The book differs from others on the subject of presentation, in emphasis, and, occasionally, in substance. Where alternative practices are in use, the most preferable version is shown in the main text but others are also fully discussed. This third edition has been substantially enlarged and new subjects now covered include the presentation of accounts of unincorporated bodies, "gamesmanship" (tactics and strategy) at meetings and public relations hints for voluntary organisations. The special problems of conferences with long agendas and of meetings receiving learned papers are also discussed. Other new sections deal with amendments to motions on notice (a highly controversial area), use of tape recorders at meetings and the special features of umbrella organisations and of national organisations with local branches.

Successful Meetings by Shri L. Henkel Pdf

A study by MCI found that most professionals believe that over 50 percent of meeting time is wasted. More than 90 percent admit to daydreaming in meetings, 73 percent have brought other work, and 39 percent have fallen asleep. You might think that there would be fewer meetings. However, in the survey 46 percent said they attended more meetings than a year ago. Meetings cost time and money. Many meetings end with no results or outcome. How can you be sure you are using your time and money effectively? The answer: with proper training. Even MBA graduates have never had a course in how to plan, organize, and present an effective meeting. That is the subject of this new book which will teach the proper skills and training to get great results with every meeting, every time! You will learn the checklists for planning your meeting, setting the agenda, strategic planning, how the physical setting can be improved, how to properly open a meeting, handling difficult people and maintaining control, how to assess and evaluate your meetings, and the correct method to end a meeting. Good meetings don't just happen, they are planned and created. Atlantic Publishing is a small, independent publishing company based in Ocala, Florida.
