Meeting Evaluation Guidelines

Summary: If you think your meetings have problems, they probably do. A simple evaluation questionnaire and process helps evaluate meeting effectiveness and suggest goals for improvement. Two formats accommodate formal or informal meeting environments.

This guideline will help you:

• Determine whether a formal or informal evaluation is best suited for your situation.
• Solicit valuable feedback from your meeting participants.
• Evaluate the meeting's strengths and weaknesses, as well as identify mismatched expectations.

What you get:

• Instructions for using the guideline.
• An overview of both formal, and informal meeting evaluation techniques.
• An example formal meeting evaluation form.
