Meetings and Reports (Word)
Meeting Agenda
It’s usual to start with ‘Introductions’, then ‘Objectives of the Meeting’ followed by the key items you want to discuss. AOB = Any Other Business
Meeting Notes
Copy and paste Actions directly into Meeting Actions by adding extra row in Actions table, selecting all actions from meeting note and pasting to second column. Always use YR.WK format for dates to allow sorting of Actions.
Meeting Actions
Number actions sequentially. Use Word Table Sort to sort by ‘ID/Ascending’ for adding actions and by ‘Status/Descending & By Wk/Ascending’ for tracking.
