Meeting Roles and Responsibilities

In this module, you will learn the role of the chairperson, minute taker, and the attendees. Finally, you will learn how to vary the roles for large and small meetings. Let us begin first by identifying the role of the chairperson. The chairperson must be able to lead the meeting and be firm throughout the meeting. The chairperson does not necessarily have to be you all the time, but when you do defer the chairperson’s duty to someone other than you, make sure you are confident the chairperson you choose can handle the role.
