Cohousing-L Mailing List: A facilitators checklist

[Rob Sandelin (robsan]

As if I wasn't already up to my ears in writing stuff, I have been 
asked to create a "facilitators checklist" which is a one page reminder 
for facilitators of the many things to work towards and think about 
while facilitating a meeting.

Given the generous spread of ideas on this list I would encourage 
anyone with facilitation tips to contribute them via the list, I will 
compile them and send them around. Specifically what I am looking for are:

Things facilitators should remember to do before the meeting starts ,as 
the meeting begins, things to do and watch for during the meeting, and 
what to do after the meeting is over.

The format of this is a divided list of bulleted sentences, a bulleted 
list for each of the above categories in time.  The goal of this is a 
one page, easily scannable resource for meeting facilitators to help 
them remember things to do and think about while being facilitator.
