It provided quite popular so I thought I’d write a little something on working with Committees in general. The minutes are the end product of a meeting but how do we ensure the meeting itself is well organised, productive and attended by the right people? The meeting space. The agenda.

As we all know writing minutes is a basic skill for assistants and we have probably written more over the years than Stephen King has writing novels. I had a job a few years back that provided support for twelve Committees who had four meetings a year, which meant I was writing a set of minutes practically every week.
