What this sheet is for

Circulate an agenda that keeps a meeting to time, by putting a named lead and a number of minutes against every item before anyone sits down.

Who it is for

Chairs, secretaries, committee members and anyone who runs a recurring meeting that overruns.

How to use it

  1. Write the finish time on the agenda, not just the start.
  2. Give every item a lead. Items without one expand to fill the meeting.
  3. Say whether each item is to decide, to discuss or to note — people prepare differently.
  4. Circulate with the papers, far enough ahead that they can be read.
  5. Take any other business in advance where you can.

What is on the sheet

The layout is fixed at a size that fits both A4 and US Letter, so the A4 and Letter files are visually identical and print at full size on either. Rows are set at a height that an adult can actually write a date and a few words into with a pen — most printable tables are built in a word processor and never tested with one.
