Question 1: Describe any four (4) tips for writing an effective agenda for a meeting?
Answer in 250-270 words.
Identify the purpose and goal of the meeting: Before you even begin checking people’s calendars,
ask yourself, “what do we need to accomplish in this meeting?” If it’s a recurring meeting, this will
help you determine how often you need to meet as well. If you’re scheduling a planning session,
for example, the purpose could be to identify the key milestones for your team’s yearly objectives,
and the goal could be to determine deadlines and who’s responsible for each milestone. Once
you’ve locked down the purpose and goal, then you can start working your scheduling magic.
Select topics which affect the team as a whole: Team meeting time is expensive and difficult to
schedule. It should mainly be used to discuss and make decisions on issues that affect the whole
team — and need the whole team to solve them. These are often ones in which individuals must
coordinate their actions because their parts of the organization are interdependent.
Schedule the most important topic as first: When planning meetings, it's usually a good policy to
front-load the schedule with the most important topics. This ensures that everyone will be able to
discuss these important topics when they're at their sharpest and least fatigued at the very beginning
of the meeting.
Get input from team: You want to make sure that everyone’s points are covered, so check with the
project team members about what they want to discuss at the meeting. You may have to cull some
of the suggestions if they are off-topic or would take too long. Fit these around your standard
agenda items.
Question 2: Explain in 150-200 words, the importance of creating a meeting agenda and list
any four
(4) items that should be included on the agenda?
Without a well-prepared agenda, any meeting of significance will commonly fail to attain the
effectiveness and efficiency expected by the meeting leader, the participants, and the management
and customers who depend on the meeting’s success. Building an agenda is making a plan for the
meeting. You start with the main goal or purpose that you are trying to accomplish by holding the
meeting. Once you have decided upon your goal, you need to determine whether you need the
assistance of additional employees to plan your agenda. If yes, invite them to join you. After
determining your overall goal, you, or your team, need to make the following decisions. In addition
to the purpose or goal of the meeting, each of these items appears on the meeting agenda.
Items that should be included in the meeting agenda are as follow:
Topic of meeting.
Schedule, duration and venue of the meeting.
Subtopics and areas of concern.
Status of identified action points.
Question 3: What are four (4) attributes of an effective and efficient meeting?
Clear purpose
Clear link for organisational strategy
Clear decisions
Clearly confirmed actions
Willingness to take responsibility for actions
Effective communication
Active participation
Freedom for expressing the views
Active listening with all participants
Well organized.
Question 4: Explain the different styles and structures of meetings. Mention which style of
meeting you would use to distribute information and receive feedback from
employees. Answer in 250-300 words.
Depending on the company’s culture, people might hardly ever be for a meeting -- or they might
never step out of this.
Formal Meeting
One sort is a formal meeting. They are formal social events to introduce imperative monetary,
authoritative, and operational data to the individuals who settle on choices in regards to these
issues. This rundown for the most part incorporates investors, senior administration, board
individuals, and conceivably people speaking to a council that is taking a shot at a particular task in
one of these regions. Instances of formal meetings are money advisory group meetings, top
managerial staff meetings, and yearly investors meetings. Such meetings would have a particular
agenda, and the minutes of the meeting will be recorded. Formal meetings are normally utilized for
announcing and exhibiting critical money related and huge scale operational data. In the event that
this is a traded on an open market organization, the minutes are required to be submitted to the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
Informal Meetings
Another sort is an informal meeting. This sort of meeting is utilized to address day by day
operational and approach issues. Your specialty meeting is a sort of informal meeting. This meeting
ought to have an agenda so as to keep the talk on track, and there will presumably be notes taken by
the participants. In any case, there will be no 'official' meeting minutes recorded. The informal
meeting can be utilized for:
Training
Problem solving
Brainstorming
I would use the formal meeting style to distribute the information and to receive the feedback from
employees.
Question 5: Question 5 What are the important skills required in a minute taker? What are
the benefits of taking minutes? Write answer in 200-250 words.
Listening
The most vital aptitude of an effective minute taker is great listening capacity. When taking meeting
minutes, sit halfway to all participants so you can hear what is being said. In the event that the
meeting is by means of telephone call, utilize a speakerphone so your hands are free for note
taking.
Minutes Organization
Utilizing a meeting note layout can prompt productive and composed meeting minutes. Your layout
ought to incorporate a spot to demonstrate meeting participants, the meeting date, time and next
planned meeting date and time. Furthermore, notes may incorporate segments for exchanges,
activity things and choices.
Critical thinker
This is the capacity to most likely filter through the data and work out what it is that actually should
be recorded. Endeavor to build up these abilities so you can be the greatest minute taker you can.
These abilities are transferable into different pieces of an overseer's job.
Decisiveness
Minute takers must have the certainty to most likely talk up in a meeting (where fitting) and clear
up focuses. This post will enable you to work with the director to make this errand less demanding.
Affirmation
Continuously look for affirmation of articulations, thoughts, choices and activity things in the event
that you are uncertain of your notes or of what you've heard. As opposed to theory or report off
base data, request illumination amid the meeting or after.
Question 6: Give an example that illustrates any event where you will invite an entire
department to a meeting and why? Write answer in 50-100 words.
Health and safety meetings/drills – In this meeting all employees of the department are

Question 8: Explain in 200-250 words, the information which should be included in minutes,
importance of checking minutes, distributing them and making necessary reports
as soon as possible after the meeting? Make a list of at least four (4) things you
can do to ensure a meeting fulfils its purpose.
For ensuring that the information remains much useful, it is important that this information
should be distributed on proper timely. For minutes, it will be depend on the meeting style which
is conducting and additional documentation that needed to finalise this meeting minutes.
Generally, the informal meetings must distribute minutes in few hours to adjourn, whereas, the
formal meeting could involve different formal validation and checks processes that can delay the
minutes distribution by upto a month.
Following list comprises of some items which might help for ensuring that meeting fulfils the
stated objective:

satisfactory time for all motivation themes and give all gatherings a reasonable voice in the
meeting. This will require the time keeper to remind participants when their dispensed
timeframe is going to terminate and, at times, implement this by breaking the present
discussion and moving to another theme/motivation thing.

Chairperson of the formal meeting. The role of the Director will be played by your
Trainer/Assessor. The role of events officer and the student support officer will be allocated
to students in your group. At the conclusion of the scenario, each student will switch with the
other students to ensure everyone experiences each role fully. If there is an insufficient
number of students, the trainer will assume multiple roles for the scenario, rotating roles at
the conclusion of each exercise. If the student is required to participate in multiple roles for
the exercise, they will also switch after each round, of the role play scenario.
In this part of the assessment task, you are required to prepare, conduct and act as
Chairperson of the “Formal meeting”. You will demonstrate that you have successfully
chaired the meeting by completing all the templates provided in this assessment task.
Before chairing the meeting, you are required to nominate a fellow student from the class as a
minute taker, brief him/her on the their role and tell them how they are to take the minutes.
You must specify the minute taker’s name and role in your meeting documentations. You also
provide rough notes from them along with the assessment.
Scenario:
You are the head of the student council at a small English school. There are 3 elected
committee members of the student council. These include the events officer, the student
support officer and the president (which is you). You will be chairing a meeting with the
Director of the school to discuss the upcoming annual New Year’s party.
You will need to come up with a plan for the New Year’s party and convince the Director on
the need for a bigger budget than the previous year. This is because the previous year the
event was a horrible experience for all involved, with a lack of food and activities; resulting
in many people leaving before the New Year began.
The meeting is due to be held in 2 weeks on the 1 st of October. Meeting invitations need to be
created and sent out via email to the relevant committee members, including the Director, that
should be present at the meeting.
The Director will be arriving on an early flight from Sydney at 8:30am and will leave to catch
another flight on the same day at 6pm. Transport will have to be arranged to pick him up and
drop him off. The meeting will be held in the school’s Conference Room 1. The meeting will
allocate roles and responsibilities for each of the team members and work out how to best
coordinate efforts with the student body. This meeting will also establish the theme, location,
date, time, budget and how to improve on the previous year’s celebration.
You will prepare a short PowerPoint on how to hold an effective party and what activities may
be included (which should ideally link in with the theme chosen). It should also be noted that:
One of the student representatives is vegan (and 15 percent of the student body is
either vegan or vegetarian)
The other student representative requires a gluten-free diet (5 other students also have
the same dietary restrictions)
The total student body is 100 students
There is a total of 10 staff members.
The number of students that attended the party previous year were 50.
Last year’s budget for this event was $5000 and this year the Director, not willing to
repeat the mess of last year is willing to spend four times this amount – if it can be
justified
In this task, the role of the Director will be played by your Trainer, who will determine your
budget allocation on how convincing your team arguments are. This meeting will form the
basis of your meeting minutes. Meeting should run accordingly to meeting documents
prepared before the commencement of the meeting, such as the meeting requirements form
and preparation form. A computer or a similar electronic device should be utilised to record
the minutes of meeting. Minutes should be taken in an electronic format, using Microsoft
Word software, as per organisational requirements. Minutes is to be reviewed to check for
errors and edited to ensure accuracy, whilst the document is being made and once it’s
completed too.
When chairing the meeting, you must ensure that you comply with legal and ethical
requirements. When chairing the meeting, you must follow the following organisational
procedures.
Organisational procedures to identify participants and send them meeting invitations
