Less formal meetings means a less formal rules for order. Repeat any motions to ensure that everyone has heard. End meeting with a summary of what was accomplished. Get to know the attendees before the meeting. Active meeting participants are more likely to complete assigned tasks. Attach action items to all assigned tasks with attendee responsible and date required for completion. As a chair you are responsible to the group, so that time is well .
