Best practice for remote governance meetings
Geoff Higgins, Managing Director, Decision Time.
The COVID-19 crisis has already led to huge changes, with remote working being the new norm. The advantages of virtual board meetings have been widely promoted in the press and on social media in recent days. Organisational leaders must adapt quickly to hold meetings and make high quality, inclusive decisions remotely.
Running remote meetings isn't just about video conferencing tools and conference calls - you need to handle papers, agendas, decisions and tasks in a secure and efficient way too.
In a webinar, held recently for SFHA members, Geoff Higgins (Decision Time - Managing Director) and David Braziel (Decision Time - Technical Director) discussed the following:
- the practicalities of holding board meetings and other governance meetings remotely.
- the tools needed to run productive remote governance Meetings.
- a short preview of the Decision Time Meetings system and how best to use it for a remote meeting.
- dealing with technical problems and enabling the non-technical users.
- conclusion
A recording of the webinar is available here.
