5 Meeting Agenda Templates

Effective agendas increase the productivity of meetings because they establish what needs to occur before, during, and after a meeting. It helps everyone get on the same page on what needs to be done, and done right enables teams to quickly address key issues.

Depending on the meeting’s purpose and the needs of your business, agendas can be simple or complex, tightly scripted or casual. What follows are five different examples, formal to informal, of agendas that enable teams to move fast and execute effectively.

5 Meeting Agenda Templates

Creating an effective meeting agenda depends on the situation: Who is meeting? What needs to get done? Is this a large, formal event or a smaller team check-in? Based on the need, agendas can take on very different forms. What follows are five examples of agendas to suit different purposes.

Sample Board Meeting Agenda Template

This example covers a more formal situation for a board meeting which includes recording and review of formal meeting minutes.

Sample Internal Team Meeting Agenda

A more informal example is a weekly sync. Often these can be distributed via email or in a calendar invite prior to the meeting. It's a list of topics to cover without the formality of recording who is in attendance when it's a group . that is regularly meeting.

Sample Project Team Meeting Agenda

Projects that involve larger teams, cross-functional stakeholders, or more coordination may have slightly more detailed agendas including action items and responsibilities in order to establish expectations.

Sample Club Meeting Agenda

In this example, this club meeting agenda is established as a way to set expectations for how long each discussion area will take and who is responsible for what. This is appropriate when people need to pre-plan their content, and for longer meetings.

Sample Informal Project Check-In Meeting Agenda

Teams that meet regularly may simply need an informal bulleted list to stay on track during their regular meeting.

Notejoy is a more effective way to manage your meetings

Running effective and productive meetings is more than just establishing a great template - it’s about managing the communication of information around the meeting. Is everyone on the same page about what the meeting’s topics and goals are? Have decisions been shared with everyone who needs to know? If you missed the meeting, how can you catch up on the details? Ensuring that the right people have access to information both in the meeting room and after is vital to operating a successful organization.
