Minutes of the meeting
Preparing Minutes of Meeting
In a typical business, many committees and task forces operate within the company. The purpose of committees is to discuss various problems and to
make recommendations to management.
A standing committee is one that
operates permanently year after year, although its members may change. A task force is a group of people who are appointed to solve a specific
problem; when they make their recommendation on the ‘task’ assigned to them,
the task force is disbanded. Each
department may have several committees
that meet periodically – usually once a week, every two weeks, or monthly.
For example, if you are working in a sales department, there may be committees
on advertising, sales conferences, commissions, product development, public
relations, and so on.
