        If you are asked to chair a meeting remember the following six golden rules for meeting management.
      1. Always start the meeting on time. If you begin on time group members who show up late will realize
the value of time. Beginning on time reflects the skill as an effective time manager and sets an example for
others to follow.
      2. Select a note-taker or arrange to have the meeting audio-taped .You may need to refer back to an
issue that was discussed during the meeting at a later date. Good record-keeping is a sign of a good meeting manager as well.
      3. Learn to listen. So many times we think we are going to say and in the process block out important
points that other group members may be contributing. Additionally we often hear only what we want to hear rather than really listen to other people. Meetings that are characterized by effective listening are successful
meetings.
      4. Keep the discussion on track .Many times important issues can get sidetracked in a meeting especially when everyone has a different opinion about the topic. If an unexpected conflict develops once the meeting
is in progress either appoint a subcommittee to look into the problem or ask the participants involved in the
conflict to meet with you after the meeting. Doing so will help keep the discussion on track and minimize (减少) the chances of wasting participants' time of great value.
      5. Give everyone an opportunity to be heard .Some people tend to control meetings whereas others
wait to be asked their opinions. As the leader of the meeting you need to keep an open mind and make sure
everyone feels welcome to contribute and express ideas without criticism.
      6. End on time. If you said the meeting would last no longer than one hour make sure the meeting lasts
for only one hour. Running late with a meeting makes members late for other appointments increases the
chances that the members will mentally leave the meeting and reduces your reliability as an effective meeting
manager.
