Our Meetings
Most of our meetings have:
-
Check-ins, where we introduce ourselves and share how we are doing.
-
A Regenerative Culture Reminder: we remind ourselves to be kind to one another, pay attention to our feelings and not to take on too many tasks.
-
A facilitator: a person whose job is to make sure everyone is heard and that we stay on task.
-
A minute taker: a person who writes down the key things mentioned in the meeting, inluding any action points (tasks that people agree to take on).
-
Check-outs: we briefly say how we feel the meeting went or what we are each looking forward to today.
