Product Description

Barnsley/Sheffield Star

"Should be required reading for every chairman or committee member." --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.


Product Description

minutes are vital to the success of any meeting. participants rely on them for information they may have missed, the action points act as a timely reminder, and those who could not attend can see what was decided in their absence.

minute-taking is often seen as a secretarial job, but this is not necessarily the case as the responsibility can fall to anyone. taking minutes of meetings provides all the necessary support for the minute-taker. reliable, accessible advice is given on important topics such as:

setting up a meeting;

sections of a meeting;

the agenda;

personal preparation;

taking notes;

the minutes;

recording decisions and actions.

minute-taking can appear daunting, but this practical guide provides you with the knowledge of your role and responsibilities, so that you can efficiently complete the task with confidence.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Step-By-Step Guide, 19 Sep 2003
By A Customer
I have a new job where I am required to take minutes of meetings. I've never taken minutes before in my life. I bought this book in my hour of need. It is fantastic! It takes you through the process step-by-step offering advice in plain English.

I have taken a few meetings now and everyone is shocked at my ability - they all think I've been minuting for years!

Highly recommended!

4.0 out of 5 stars A practical, easy-to-use resource for minute-taking, 23 Jan 2007
By Rolf Dobelli "getAbstract.com" (Switzerland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
The unsung hero of any corporate meeting is the minute-taker, quietly and diligently recording the decisions, big and small, that fuel the engines of business. Minute-taking is not simply the process of scribbling notes on a pad. A skilled minute-taker distills lengthy discussions down to their essential messages, and creates order and harmony from the often discordant process of reaching a consensus. Office communication consultant Joanna Gutmann carefully explains every aspect of the process, from setting up the meeting and distributing the agenda to taking notes and formatting the minutes. You will encounter quite a bit of redundancy if you read the book cover-to-cover, but we believe you will find it to be an indispensable reference if you are assigned to take the minutes.
