Questions and Answers

1.

You should never define the purpose of the meeting.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
It is important to define the purpose of a meeting in order to ensure that everyone attending has a clear understanding of why they are there and what needs to be accomplished. Without a defined purpose, meetings can become unfocused and unproductive. By clearly stating the purpose, participants can come prepared and contribute effectively towards achieving the meeting's objectives. Therefore, the statement "You should never define the purpose of the meeting" is false.

A timekeeper should be designated to track the meetings progression.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Designating a timekeeper to track the meetings' progression is important to ensure that the meeting stays on track and does not exceed the allocated time. The timekeeper's role is to monitor the time spent on each agenda item, keep the meeting on schedule, and notify participants when time is running out. This helps to improve meeting efficiency, productivity, and ensures that all important topics are discussed within the given time frame.

Agendas are not important and should never be used in a meeting.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
The statement that "Agendas are not important and should never be used in a meeting" is incorrect. Agendas are crucial for a meeting as they provide structure and help participants stay focused on the objectives. They outline the topics to be discussed, allocate time for each item, and ensure that all necessary participants are present. By using an agenda, meetings can be more productive, efficient, and organized. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

Rate this question:
5.

A "Brown Robin" is one way of encouraging the members of your meeting to participate.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
The statement is false because there is no such thing as a "Brown Robin" in the context of encouraging meeting participation. The statement seems to be a made-up term or a typo. It is important to use clear and understandable language when trying to engage meeting participants, rather than using unfamiliar or nonsensical terms.
