AGENDA

Discussion

An agenda keeps board meetings focused and productive. Every board meeting should have a carefully prepared agenda with a mix of routine matters and items that require careful deliberation, backed up by concise background information. Each agenda item should specify the:

  • Topic
  • Time allotted
  • Name of the board member who will present the topic and any outside speakers
  • Whether action is required by the board (approval/disapproval, discussion)
