To prepare a minute template simply use your agenda and put it in minute format. Under each agenda heading you can then record the appropriate information when you are in the meeting. I use the meeting agenda as an index with each item as a tab number. June 16, 2009 Ericasaid. This is a great post. or p.m.?

It’s still on the agenda. My Daily Themes did help me with my talks during the past month, but they actually helped me work on the other tasks I needed to take care of before my travels in March more. I mapped out my talks further, and I planned what needed doing before my travels for work and home. Thursday was Training Day.

I have a deep admiration and appreciation for those who dedicate themselves to support roles, which is one of the reasons I now focus a large part of my corporate training business on working with administrative teams. These roles also may require more specialized education, training and/or experience.

I tend to keep my scheduling sheets in chronological order and each morning I go through them to see if there is any action I need to take, i.e. follow up to ask for an agenda or see if I can start scheduling. I dont want to miss a step so always go through the checklist on the travel sheet.

The night before I go to a Board meeting, I review all my templates, agendas, binder, attendance sheets and everything I am going to need or might need. Every time I use a bus ticket, I keep a mental inventory so I know when I need to buy some more and dont show up at the bus stop one morning and Oops! no tickets. Do I have everything?

So, but what then happened for us is that whenever we travelled there, people were like, oh, well, you know, hey, I’d love to catch up. And then it’s also about making sure that you have an agenda. It’s a train. Thank you, so much and safe travels, back to New Zealand and we hope to chat with you again soon.

She had an agenda and was going to let him have it. I also do not claim to give any medical, financial, psychological, veterinary, retail, personal training or HR advice, although at times it may seem like I think I know what Im talking about, it is just my opinion. The longer she couldnt get in touch with him, the angrier she became.

I put it in the order of when he will need it and flag anything that he will require for teleconferences, meetings and travel. For instance, if your boss is travelling on the Monday, you will have to give him or her everything they will need on Friday. I do this for each day of the week.

The short term training investment will pay off in the long term. If you are an evening person and you plan last thing, make sure you are looking at the next day's agenda! Their reasons are usually not rooted in sound reasoning.    Assume that most people want added responsibilities (don't you?). What Did I Miss?

If he is travelling, I send it by e-mail, but it has been my experience that I will get better results with a face-to-face meeting. This also works with your Calendar, which comes in handy if you want to either insert the agenda or another document from Word, or if you need to insert an e-mail.

What’s funny about getting that job is that I never had any specific training for that. In a few days we completed a small training. If it’s a friendship, see if the person at the end is not having any hidden agendas which will break up the validation process at some point. I finally discovered what I had to do.

We always compliment folks who travel more, and who try out new activities, because they are opening their minds up in the process. Any of these things will be interesting to those you deal with. Novelty-seeking is something we always praise when we see it in another person, and look to have it in ourselves.

After all, you can’t please everybody and everyone has their own agenda. Even soldiers believe they’re serving their countries, when they may only be furthering the agenda of a dictator.

I have appointments in my agenda and tasks to be done. It is also the reason I love to travel with little planning ahead. It also makes you a very open person, because the next traveller you meet might just point you to the next great thing you can freely visit because no plans are holding you back.

Thanks to Peter Coombs of FRONTLINE Training & Consulting 8. Even though I'm trained and certified in professional organizing, I too can quickly become overwhelmed in a client's cluttered space. I can then either leave them up on the wall, and tweak them throughout the day, or I can generate a formal to-do list.
