Importance of agenda?
It probably seems obvious that meeting agendas are important for timing purposes. An agenda keeps a meeting from going too long and keeps a meeting on topic. an agenda lists the timetable for topics, activities and speakers within the pre-established time frame of the meeting. The importance of an agenda starts even before the meeting takes place. When we schedule a meeting, we should also send the agenda. A brief verbal review of the agenda at the start of the meeting reinforces the meeting's goals to everyone attending. This review also gives the us a base on which to fall back on when the meeting drifts off topic and a way to bookend the meeting along with a recap of the meetings goals at the end. For meetings that are following a presentation format, instead of a discussion format, the importance of an agenda is lessened. However, in that case, sending out a short description of the presentation can help people make a more educated choice regarding their attendance when a scheduling conflict might exist.
Explain the difference between a regular agenda and a chairperson's agenda?
A regular agenda typically outlines the topics to be discussed in a meeting, including the order in which they will be addressed. It serves as a guide for participants to stay on track and ensure all important items are covered. On the other hand, a chairperson's agenda is more focused on the facilitation of the meeting itself, including time allocations for each agenda item, managing discussions, and ensuring the meeting stays productive and efficient. The chairperson's agenda is more about the process and management of the meeting, while a regular agenda is about the content and topics to be discussed.
Difference between agenda and chairman's agenda?
From a book called Administrative Management by EJ Ferreira, AW Erasmus, D Groenewald in Chapter 8.3.2. 'When the agenda is drawn up, the secretary keeps a special copy for the chairperson. The 'Chairperson's agenda' is divided into three columns. To the left is the ordinary agenda. The central column contains particulars for the chairperson on who proposed the motion and any matter that should be remembered with regard to the issue. The right column is used for details on decisions, names of people elected to committees or members who have been charged (entrusted) with special duties.

Who makes a motion at a meeting?
Any member recognized by the facilitator may make a motion. Following a second, the group discusses the motion. When discussion ends, the motion is voted on.
What do you say to motion at a meeting?
First you need to have standing (permission) to rise and speak, let alone make a motion at a meeting. For example, at a public meeting of a planning commission, only the commissioners can make a motion, although the chairperson of the meeting may (at his or her discretion) recognize a member of the public provide input on an issue prior to taking a vote. A recognized member (or alternate voting delegate) may make a motion, at the proper time, by simply saying, "I would like to make the following motion", and then continuing with his or her idea. Many times it is less formal, such as "I move that we accept the minutes as read", or "I make a motion that we suspend the rules and waive the reading of the treasurer's report." The chairperson may immediately rule you "out of order" for a number of reasons, and ask you to sit down and be quiet. At the proper time, you may again attempt to make a motion. After that, there is typically a "second" to the motion, or (if no second) a very uncomfortable pause while the motion fails to even elicit support of one other member (it is very embarrassing when this happens, and sometimes results in immediate resignation by the member whose motion was not seconded). Once the motion has been seconded, the chairperson can ask for any discussion, which may include a motion to amend the primary motion, or a motion to withdraw (or suspend action upon) the primary motion, among other things. Eventually, any motion not tabled or withdrawn must be voted upon, or the meeting suspended (adjourned) until further information can be obtained by those who wish to continue discussing it before voting...
