Planning Meetings Having just led a meeting, you want to ensure that there is a definite followup process to ensure that it had value. Place the following actions in order of timing, providing a brief explanation for each decision. $$ Send minutes and thanks to attending participants. $$ Write a comprehensive set of minutes that highlight the main actions that were agreed upon during the meeting and who has responsibility for each action. $$ Contact the stakeholders, share the minutes with them, and brief them on immediate and future out$-$comes. $$ State the date, time, and place of the next meeting. $$ Create entries in your calendar to check the interim progress on all agreed$-$upon actions. $$ Send an email to participants and stakeholders in the meeting to update them on progress since the meeting. $$ Seek feedback from participants on how the meeting progressed and ask for their ideas on improving productivity in future meetings. $$ Solicit opinions on what items need to be included in the agenda for the next meeting. $$ Personally brief any participants who could not attend the meeting, if required.
