Meeting Note 10

[Before Speaking]

• Have Mission Review slide showing.
• Ensure Mission Statement flipchart is prominently posted.
• Have Parking Lot flipchart visible and accessible.
• Keep timer ready for one-minute shares.

[To Read Aloud]

• We’ll take a couple minutes now to reflect on two important questions about our mission.
• These questions will help ensure we all understand and are aligned on our goal.
• We’ll use a “lap” approach – each person gets one minute to share while others listen.
• If questions arise that need more discussion, we’ll post them to our parking lot.
• Let’s start with silent reflection on the two questions.
• (Complete a lap ensuring everyone speaks; post issues for follow-up on the Parking Lot.)

 Next: Thank you for sharing. Now let’s review the balance of the agenda for our meeting →

[Pro Tips]

• Keep reflection to 2 minutes maximum.
• Prompt team members along who go beyond a minute for sharing their thoughts.
• Listen for concerns that might impact mission success.
• Document Parking Lot items for follow-up.
• Keep focus on mission understanding, not problem-solving yet.
• Park any implementation questions for later discussion.
