Call Norms

  • Be prepared and come ready to engage. Read the agenda, notes from the previous call, and do any preparatory work ahead of time.  
  • Balance your participation—speak and listen—and make sure everyone’s voice is heard.
  • Look ahead to positive action, not back on ‘shoulda, woulda, coulda’.
  • Stay Focused. Everyone is responsible for helping to stay on topic—capture off topic items in a ‘backburner’ and agree to discuss them later at a more appropriate time.
  • Be concise and to the point.
  • Be open to feedback.
