In most cases, the board secretary will set the agenda for a board meeting, although any board member can do it. The secretary often puts the board meeting agenda together in collaboration with the board president. The secretary typically asks board members if they have any items they want to be added to the agenda.
Here are the primary elements to include when writing meeting minutes: Why the meeting happened. First and last names of attendees. The date and time of the meeting. Projects assigned during the meeting and their deadlines. Decisions employees and leadership made during the meeting.
The chair owns the agenda Who prepares the first draft? Usually the company secretary, the CEO or the board secretary. This then needs to be approved or amended by the chair. The agenda and the board papers need to be sent to all directors at least 5 days plus a weekend, prior to the board meeting.
Ultimately it is for the Chair to decide where on the agenda an item should be placed if there is any doubt. However, the Secretary should draft the agenda in full with a proposal for where items should be positioned.
The officers of the organization prepare the agenda with assistance from the organization advisor. An agenda starts with a list of general business items. Specific topics that are to be discussed at the meeting are placed under the proper agenda item in an outline format.
What to include in your template. Logistics: Include the date, time, location, and list of attendees. A call to order: This signals the official start of the meeting. Approval of minutes: Review and approve the minutes from your last meeting. Old business: Close the loop on any unresolved issues from previous meetings.
Board chair: The board chair is at the helm of every meeting and is responsible for following board meeting best practices. They set the agenda and collaborate with the corporate secretary to create it. They guide all conversations and decisions using the agenda, ensuring every board member feels heard.

Good office communication flow boils down to what I call, the “four Ps” — portions, packaging, placement and point-in-time. In other words, you've got to pass the message at the right time, in the right place, and in nicely packaged, digestible bites.
