6 Closing a meeting

Public Group active 1 year, 7 months ago

The sixth stage in our model for effective meetings is Closing a Meeting. Whilst first impressions are recognised as significant, it is worth remembering that last impressions can be lasting. Our discussion groups on Closing a Meeting embrace a number of topics, starting with summarising points of agreement – it is really important to ensure everyone at the meeting has a clear understanding of what has been agreed and what needs to be done next.

    Placeholder for Summarising Points of Agreement

    The best practice is to have the points of agreement written up on a flip-chart for all to see and added to as the meeting progresses. The summary at the end will just be a quick review (reading out) of the points. This is much better than the alternative, which is to have one person in the meeting keeping notes and then having a summary cobbled together from those notes. This is a recipe for “that’s not what we agreed!” opportunities for conflict. D it as you go will steer clear of those issues.
