        Questions

        To write a meeting minutes, follow these five steps: Pre-Planning - write the agenda / outline. Record taking - record crucial information such as the date and time of meeting, names of attendees, and the agenda items discussion. Minutes writing or transcribing - write it as soon as possible, keep it objective, fact-based, and brief. Distributing or sharing of meeting minutes - by online sharing, cloud sharing, email. Filing or storage of minutes for future reference.
        Understand how to identify the essential items to note. Know when it is sufficient to focus on listening. Prepare for the meeting in advance. Use templates - to keep documents professional Consult with the chairperson about the meeting first. Talk to the participants before the meeting. Write accurately and neutrally.
        Before the meeting: Prepare the various topics to be addressed throughout the meeting to conserve time and to be able to focus on essential topics during the meeting.    During the meeting:  Build the notes as the meeting advances: a tip to composing the notes coherently is to differentiate actions from remarks as well as noting the different actions per person with a deadline.   After the meeting:  Type out the notes in a logical manner. Organized the notes to send to colleagues.
        The past tense is normally used for writing minutes, as the discussion during the meeting actually happened in the past. There is an exception to this rule. Governing body resolutions should be written in the present tense because they will only occur in the future.
        Good minutes are essential to the meeting's success. The minutes of the meeting should allow attendees to verify the collective census's decisions and decided actions. Minutes pen down the proceedings in a meeting, either by hand physically or on a computer. An experienced secretary includes relevant information in the meeting and forgoes unnecessary information. Minutes may be a list of actions, a verbatim record of the deliberations, or a narrative of discussions.
        Meeting minutes are the complete notes serving as an official record of a meeting. The chairperson in charge of the meeting would delegate this minute taking task to one of the participants. Although this job is not exceedingly difficult, taking minutes is an important one. As the meeting minutes are the official record of the discussion of the meeting, accuracy is essential.
        Although some people have the opinion that minute taking is not as relevant as before, having great minute taking skills is still important. First, it helps the company to have accurate records. Also, people will know that you are good at every job you tackle on.
        Be prepared for the meeting Show up early and have all the necessary documents in order to set up the writing station before the meeting starts.    Keep it simple The notes do not have to be word for word. What is important is clarity.   Listen before writing Listen to each point first before writing everything down. This step gives time to figure out what needs to be recorded and to sum up what was said.   Use bullet points and keywords Use bullet points to pen down lists of proposals and remarks.
        To be a good meeting minutes taker, Be a great listener. Minute-takers are known for taking more time to listen than writing down. Be reasonably confident about the words that are written down. Remember that it is useful to have a computer but not critical. Have a copy of the agenda. Read the agenda carefully and discuss it with the chair beforehand. Have the file of past minutes in the event someone asks about past discussions.
        Shorthand is not a vital skill for a good minute taker. On the contrary, people who take notes using shorthand often take inferior minutes because their practice is to note down everything.
        Minutes should be recorded at all board of director meetings and shareholder general meetings. Keeping minutes shows that the group is solvent and alive as a corporation. Keeping minutes allows officers and directors to enjoy the protection from individual liability for the officers that incorporating a company provides. Keeping minutes is also useful for organizational purposes.
        Avoid even trying to record the conversations in the meeting word for word. It only increases the chances of an error. Be succinct and sum up the key points. Summarise everyone’s agreed conclusion, instead of trying to record down everyone’s opinions. Simply state, keeping in mind not to favour one’s side over another, that there were many points of view.
        Minutes of the meeting are so crucial for people who were unable to attend and who wants a recollection on the meeting's decisions. They are also a useful tool to remind people of their duties or timelines, keeping everyone on track. Here is an example of what may be included in a minutes of meeting template: For an informal meeting: the date, list of those present and absent, list of attendees, list of agendas, and the next course of action to take by who.
        Once the meeting minutes are entirely written, make the meeting minutes official by getting the board secretary’s signature. The organization’s protocol may also need the director’s signature. Always follow the organization’s internal rules and protocols for keeping the minutes. It is good to have back-up copies in print or softcopy. The secretary also has responsibility for distributing the minutes. Make sure the director approves the minutes before sharing them.
        A minute taker is a person who records the minutes of the meeting. He or she is accountable of the only official version of events recorded. He or she may be a legal, professional note taker, whose job is to officially record the agendas discussed, or they may simply be an active attendee of the meeting.
        The formality of the meeting. The manner of taking notes depends on the formality of the meeting. Minutes should follow the agenda order. Enter the revisitation of a previous topic under the original agenda item being discussed. Include all the key summaries or decisions made, and actions agreed, and who is accountable for those actions. Minutes are usually written in the past tense and the passive voice. Use ‘would’ rather than ‘will’ for what is going to happen, especially with formal minutes.
        The minutes of a meeting is prepared by the minutes taker or secretary, whose job is to record the minutes of the meeting. This person may not necessarily have a formal title as a "minutes taker". The minutes taker need not be the secretary, which is often true for informal meetings.
        A resolution is a written document that describes the decisions agreed to be taken by the board of directors of a corporation in a meeting. On the other hand, the minutes are a written document that describes actions taken to be taken and are a record of agendas and matters discussed.
        The following are the features of a good meeting minutes: 1. Records attendance A good meeting minutes indicate those who were requested to come for the meeting and those who truly attended the meeting - List those who were present and those who were absent. 2. Lists the decisions, action items, and those responsible Pen down the decisions and action items that were agreed upon. 3. Include a copy of reports or other documents used in the meeting Ensure that copies of these are included in the minutes of meeting. 4. Use a template format Start your report with facts such as time, date, venue and attendees. The agenda should be the outline of your report.
