Running Head: Plagiarism Exercise

Meetings are an inevitable part of the business world, be it in a for-profit or non-profit

organization. Group gatherings are required as this is one of the most efficient mechanisms for sharing

information and making decisions. However, it is likely that you have sat through a meeting and

thought how disappointed you were that you could never get that time back. Perhaps the meeting

spent too much time on one subject. Maybe the content was something that you were already

effective and efficient. A well-run meeting represents a chance for a group to set direction, discuss

difficult issues and make informed decisions. Good meetings also enhance participants’ sense of

belonging, which is vital in an era when people feel less identified with the organization they work for

and when there is less time devoted to formal mentoring.

problems and minimize others. In preparing the agenda, the meeting leader should solicit input from

meeting participants (Schwarz, 2015). Generally, those who attend the meeting are best prepared to

determine what needs to be addressed in the meeting. Topics should be items that affect all, or at least

most of the attendees (Schwarz, 2015, p.3). If the item does not affect some in attendance, there is no

need to have those people attending that part of the meeting.

Agenda topics should be listed as questions to enhance the awareness of what needs to be

accomplished (Story, 2015). Rather than an agenda item named “Custodial Contract,” the item should

be listed as “Should In-house Custodial Services be Contracted Out?” Story also suggests that agendas:
