SUMMARY:Union Meetings and Robert's Rules with Patti Legault-Frank
DESCRIPTION:Whether you want to become a more effective and respected Chair\, or a more confident and impactful participant\, we’ll put Robert’s Rules Order to work to achieve more effective and democratic union meetings.  We’ll review both the basics of Robert’s Rules of Order (making motions\, debate\, and voting). You will learn how Robert’s Rules of Order interfaces with your union’s bylaws\, special rules of order\, standing rules\, and past practice\, as well as labor law.  Other issues we will discuss will be special meetings\, executive session\, electronic meetings\, rules for committees and small boards (yes\, they are different from membership meetings!)\, members ex-officio\, and more.  You will also find the materials distributed in this course invaluable meeting tools as you attend or run your union meetings.
