Project Detail

ABC Company conducts their annual business planning meeting on Tuesday, 24 November commencing at
9.30am and finishing at 4.30pm.
This meeting is generally conducted at some external venue in Melbourne.
They are expecting 10 participants in the meeting. Two of the participants are coming from interstate

show a PowerPoint and talk on the achievements of the year and future strategic direction of the company.
Lunch will be catered for by the external venue.
The post lunch session is usually a presentation from a guest speaker. In this year’s meeting, the guest
speaker is from the USA and is expected to show a video and talk on innovative products for two hours

Meeting papers
Describe the meeting papers you were required to prepare and the distribution method you used
to provide those papers to participants. Why did you choose the distribution method that you
used?

Meeting papers may be distributed in physical form, or in electronic form via email. If the meeting papers are
not made available to participants long enough before the meeting, they will not have enough time to consider
the information which is given in the papers. If meeting papers state an action required of the recipients, they
should comply with this. If policy papers need to be circulated to members, they should have enough time to
read them, in order to be able to express their opinion on the content.
