Guidelines for Board Meeting Minutes

Guidelines for Board Meeting Minutes
Tuesday, March 10 | 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM | Webinar

Presented by: Tish Mogan, Standards for Excellence Director, PANO

Have you ever seen…

• board meeting minutes that go on and on and on with no breaks in them? I have.
• board meeting minutes that are so brief you can’t tell if the board was involved at all? I have.
• board meeting minutes that contain report after report after report? I have.
• board meeting minutes that have just the right detail, just the right amount of board interaction, and are strategic in nature? I have.

If you are in the last category, you most likely don’t need this program. If you are like most people, however, you are in one of the first three categories! And in that case, you or your colleagues (especially the ones involved in taking the minutes!) may be interested in this opportunity to review best practices for board meeting minutes.

We will cover best practice guidelines for board meeting minutes that provide important areas for “your record of corporate actions”. We will discuss how to assist the board in maintaining a strategic focus in the way that minutes are compiled. We will share resources and tools for your next set of minutes.
