The planning of an online board meeting is crucial to successful meetings, effective board engagement, and the quality of meeting minutes. These suggestions will help you organize your next virtual meeting and ensure that it is efficient and productive.
Set up an agenda that is reflective of the goals of your meeting, like to inform people, gather data or make a decision. This will guide the discussion and assist your chairperson in controlling the speed of the discussion. Also, make sure to provide a maximum speaking time for each speaker and topic to keep the discussion moving and prevent the discussion from becoming a distraction.
The meeting should be scheduled for a time that is convenient for everyone. This will allow them to participate more easily in the meeting and ensure that the quorum, essential for voting and democracy is present. Moreover, it’s important to take into consideration the time zones of all attendees and provide them with the proper tools to ensure a smooth discussion.
Hire a staff member to act as a timekeeper and ensure the duration of each discussion and ensure that the time slots are maintained. This will increase accountability for board members and increase productivity. It’s a good idea for members and directors to dress professionally to avoid distractions from lighting and clothing that could be a problem when filming.
Invite or require everyone to use video during the meeting to increase engagement and let them observe the body language of their colleagues. This will assist in building trust and encouraging an environment of collaboration.
