Meetings
and decisions
Meetings should be enjoyed, not endured. They don’t
have to be boring.
Meetings are important for discussion and decision-making
in any business, but in a co‑operative
they are essential, and we must make them effective – ie, brief,
efficient and amicable.
Holding regular effective and enjoyable meetings is the
best way of ensuring member participation and democracy and therefore
the sustainability of a co‑operative.
Workshops
Our workshops focus on the three tools (role of the
chair, the minutes and the agenda), increasing participation, evaluating
meetings, the decision-making process and different styles of decision
making.
Self assessment
We’ve prepared a brief questionnaire to help
you assess whether your co‑operative needs to pay more attention to the
way it runs meetings. Click here to check out your meetings skills.
