Preparing for your board’s meeting, whether you’re the chairperson, CEO or executive director is crucial to ensure it is running smoothly. Although it might seem counterintuitive to devote as much time the preparation for the board meeting as you will be spending at it with a well-organized agenda and complete board book can save you time in the long run, as it helps cut down on unnecessary conversations.

It is also simpler for board members who are newer or less experienced to comprehend the debate and how their contribution to the success of the company is affected by the board meeting items. This is particularly beneficial for board members who are younger or newer members, who may be unable to understand complex discussions.

Additionally, it’s a good idea to decide the approximate time for each item at the board meeting. This will help keep things moving swiftly and prevent members being clocked out prior to the end of the meeting.

The day prior to the meeting, verify that the venue is ready and that any necessary catering arrangements have been made. Also, ensure that directors who haven’t yet submitted their reports have deadlines and a plan for submitting their reports.

Prepare any informational packets that will be distributed to the board members prior to the meeting and then review any other meeting regulations. It is ideal to distribute these packets 48 hours before the meeting to ensure that board members can partake in a discussion that is informed prior to the meeting.
