Adjusting Recurring Agendas

How to adjust a standing agenda for a recurring meeting.

Small incremental change is happening all the time. Big changes happen too, and they get all the coverage. But it may be that the small changes matter far more to us, even though we hardly note them, or their impact. Our businesses are constantly changing, in small, small ways. So, virtually everything we do starts to become obsolete the moment we do it. As we have said before, everything decays. Margins and relationships, especially.

If you run a recurring meeting, you were probably smart enough to set a standing agenda. Here's what to do when change gradually makes you feel that that agenda might be overcome by events, or outdated.
