Different Kinds Of Meetings
Below is list of different kinds of meetings. In some cases different kinds of meetings can be combined. Conversely, leaders sometimes discover, after reading through this list, that they are trying to do too much in a single meeting with a given group of participants.
Situation Analysis Meetings
Purpose: to gather information and separate larger topics into actionable sub-issues and set/recommend priorities. This kind of meeting is commonly held as part of the preparation required to determine the topics on the agenda for a larger meeting.
Participants: A smaller group with the implicit authority to set overall priorities and assign topics and sub-issues to others.
Frequency: As needed.
