Emily – Yes, according to Al, the things suggested in the first point are supposed to happen in the meeting itself. He says the point of the meeting is to either 1) debate the decision that has already been made or 2) coordinate efforts to begin moving forward with the decision. In other words, modern meetings are not used to make a decision. That should have already occurred.

He doesn’t spend too much time on what happens during the debate. I think if relevant points come up he would say that they are to be discussed and debated during the meeting. The key is to have already made a decision about next steps. That decision can change as a result of the debate.

I really like the ideas in the manifesto, but I want to figure something out about the numbered points for the modern meeting.  are the things suggested in the first point: ” debate the decision, propose alternatives, make suggestions, or  address any concerns” all supposed to happen in the meeting itself?  if so, if relevant points come up, is it possible to move forward with the rest of the “let’s make things happen” type of meeting points in step 2-7?  Or is – debate, propose, suggest and address all supposed to happen before the modern meeting begins?
