I\u2019d like to send round the agenda this afternoon.\n<strong>Leo:&lt;\/strong&gt; Of course. Let\u2019s keep the meeting as small and as <strong>*manageable* &lt;\/strong&gt;\/&nbsp;<strong> managerial&lt;\/strong&gt; as possible. We don\u2019t want the meeting to be <strong>wieldy &lt;\/strong&gt;\/&nbsp;<strong> *unwieldy*&lt;\/strong&gt;.\n<strong>Isla:&lt;\/strong&gt; That shouldn\u2019t be a problem. Only five members of the team will be there. We need <strong>*clarity* &lt;\/strong&gt;\/&nbsp;<strong> clearance&lt;\/strong&gt; about the topics we want to discuss. I\u2019m wondering whether we should have a separate meeting to talk about the marketing campaign.\n<strong>Leo:&lt;\/strong&gt; Yes, good idea. That\u2019s not as urgent as the other items on the agenda. Can we make sure we set some ground rules? Last time, everyone was talking<strong> on &lt;\/strong&gt;\/&nbsp;<strong> *over*&lt;\/strong&gt; each other.\n<strong>Isla:&lt;\/strong&gt; Let\u2019s appoint a <strong>*facilitator* &lt;\/strong&gt;\/&nbsp;<strong> facility &lt;\/strong&gt;to keep things efficient. I think I\u2019ll ask Dougie \u2014 he\u2019s really good at staying focused.\n<strong>Leo: &lt;\/strong&gt;OK, great. If you send me a draft of the agenda, I\u2019ll be able to identify the <strong>*deliverables* &lt;\/strong&gt;\/&nbsp;<strong> deliveries&lt;\/strong&gt; we need to get out of this meeting. Then it\u2019ll be easier to know how much time we should allow for each item.\n<strong>Isla:&lt;\/strong&gt; Thanks, Leo.&lt;\/p&gt;\n"},</strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></p>
