Does your organization have any of the following problems?
-
Your meetings are either too slow-moving to keep the attention of the members, or so fast-paced that members feel that decisions are “railroaded” through.
-
One member of your organization tends to dominate meetings through a superior knowledge of parliamentary procedure.
-
Your organization is expecting difficulties at an upcoming membership meeting, board meeting, or convention.
-
Your bylaws or other governance documents are out-dated, poorly written, or too confining.
-
At your last meeting, your organization got into a procedural problem that you are not sure how to correct.
If so, a professional parliamentarian is trained to help. A parliamentarian will work to ensure that organizations and their meetings run fairly and efficiently.
