Overview

An AGM fails when the reports overrun and the votes are squeezed out. This agenda gives every item a start time, an owner and a verb such as note, elect or decide, and keeps the resolutions well before any other business.

The sample is a 120-minute members' meeting for a fictional association, Eastlake Works, with 312 members, a 20% quorum, four resolutions and 15 minutes of AOB. Replace the dates, names and figures, then check that your item times still add up to the meeting length.

Useful for

  • A club secretary sending the AGM notice and order of business 28 days ahead
  • A chair planning the timings so reports do not push the votes out
  • A treasurer presenting the year's accounts and a proposed subscription rise

What's included

  • Title block with date, time, place and chair, plus four headline figures for the year
  • Order of business for welcome, minutes and the chair's report, with minutes and owners
  • Evening timeline from 7.00pm to the close, showing when reports, elections and votes fall
  • Table of four resolutions and two AOB items, each with the wording and the majority needed
  • Notice rules and a pre-reading panel with the date papers must be read by
  • Make it yours guide page with five steps for replacing the sample content

Questions

Are the people and figures in this sample real?

No. Eastlake Works, its committee, members, accounts and resolutions are fictional and exist only to show how a finished AGM agenda reads.

How long should an AGM agenda run?

Most clubs need 90 to 120 minutes. Give each item a time, leave 15 minutes for AOB, and make sure the times add up exactly to the meeting length.

Can I change the order of the items?

Check your constitution first. Many require the minutes, reports, accounts and elections in a set order, but resolutions and AOB can usually move earlier.
