Minute taking has changed over the years. The requirements and expectations of the 21st century are very different from the expectations even 10, but certainly 20 and 30 years ago. Here are some points for you to consider about minutes and taking minutes.• Minutes are written for people who were at the meeting, not for people who were not! They are not designed to be a story to tell everyone who was not at the meeting, what went on. It may be smart to publish the key decisions but that is all.• Around 60% - 70% of the minute taker's work is done before the meeting begins. Most but not all of this work is in the preparation of the agenda. The agenda is essentially the draft minutes! Most experienced minute takers know this.• If the minute taker is to do the job properly, then he or she must be involved in physically preparing the agenda. The Agenda is your secr

This is a scary statistic. Imagine how much more successful your event would be if you could get just half of those "undecided" folks to register. Imagine how much more energy there would be in the room, not to mention how much extra cash would be in your company's bank account.It's NOT an insignificant number.This is why automatic follow-up with registrants who "bail out" before they're done securing their seat is very important.Online registration makes life far easier on both event planners and registrants, but the right system can also increase attendance and decrease cost for your company.If you don't have an automated way of tracking folks who abandon registration forms half way through and following up with them, you're leaving a lot of money on the table. No, it's worse than that. You're burning up cash that would otherwise be yours!<

Getting goods from A to B is hard enough. Finding the right way to carry those goods is another headache. Once, we loaded and unloaded goods item by item - those were the days when labour was cheap. Then the Second World War came. This mother of many inventions brought us the wooden pallet. This, combined with a fork lift truck, enabled goods to be moved quickly and with less labour.Wooden PalletsThe wooden pallet was a great idea. So good was the idea that it is still going strong to this day. However, things have changed. Pallet pooling can be an expensive business. Rental and purchase costs have risen to reflect the increase in timber costs and the extra burden of fumigation and quality control.Escalating fuel costs have taken their toll on the inevitable dedicated trips that are made to repatriate empty pallets when imbalances occur in the supply ch

Have you ever thought that your unconventional way of viewing the workplace tends to create cold sweat down the back of your boss? That is if he is a bureaucrat - a custodian of the status quo! It’s not really old fashioned shoes or light green krimpilene trousers that make your boss’s management style so outdated. It is his closed mindset, which passionately resists change and obsessively treasures policies and procedures. This is fertile breeding ground for complacency and killing creativity in a team!Achieving results are not at the top of the list for your boss. Whipping up a whirlwind of rules and regulations is. He embraces the company’s policy at the expense of everything else. Getting things done with speed and a high sense of urgency doesn’t even make it onto his list. He will rather unleash report-writing mediocrity. Knowingly or unknowingly, he is an expert in ca

"The U.S. Government Printing Office disseminates official information from all three branches of the Federal Government," says the Web site, adding that their mission is to keep America informed. The site provides electronic access to documents from a number of government branches, agencies and databanks.
