Agenda & Minutes

All important decisions are taken at board meetings. For this purpose the
secretary has to prepare a document outlining the contents or issues to be
discussed, known as agenda.
Preparing agenda and sending out a notification in this regard is one of the
most important duties of a secretary.
Benefits: It not only helps the members to come prepared but also the
chairperson to conduct meeting smoothly. When issues are taken up
serially at the meeting, the secretary is always in attendance to take down
or tape record what is being said by each of the members.

The official record of the proceedings of a meeting is known as Minutes.
