99 Get organized! Call each participant the day before and confirm attendance. This may not appear to be good use of your time and it should be their responsibility. However, much more time is wasted when all but one person arrives at the meeting and you are trying to “round up that last person.” 组织好！在会议之前打电话给每个与会人员以确认他们的出席情况。这个看起来没有很好的利用你的时间，而且按时出席会议是他们的责任。但是，如果会议开始时所有的人都到了而只缺一个人没有来，你试图找到这最后一个人所浪费的时间还要多。 100 Do not allow time in meetings for solving hundred dollar problems when you are spending thousands of dollars on the meeting. Focus on what is important.
如果你在会上花掉上千美金的时候就不用讨论那些如何解决几百美金的问题。关注最重要的。 101 The meeting is not over until the minutes have been distributed (within two working days) and all action items have been accomplished. 会议并没有结束，直到会议纪要被分发（在两个工作日之内）并且所有的行动都已经完成。 102 Never leave a meeting wondering why you invested your time in the meeting. If the objectives were not accomplished, figure out what can be done differently to ensure that the next meeting does not end the same way. 不要留下一个会议回来质疑你为什么在这个会议上花费你的时间。如果目标没有完成，看看能不能做一些不同的事情来确保下一次会议不会有同样的结果。 103 Distribute pre-work for participants. If each person could research for all of the other participants, you can save a significant amount of time for the entire meeting. 把你已经完成的一部分工作发给与会人员。如果每个人都能够仔细的研究一下它，那么你会在整个会议上节约很多时间。 104 Before leaving the meeting, create an action plan for all of the decisions that were made in the meeting. 在结束会议之前，把会议上所有的决定整合成一份行动计划。 105 Control dominate participants by reinforcing that you understand their position and ask the dominating person to listen to the other participant’s point of view so that we can create a course of action. 对于那些强势的与会人员，你应表明你清楚他们的地位并要求他们听取其他与会人的意见，这样就可以制定行动计划了。 106 Make every meeting unique. Do something different for each meeting like changing the location, time or room layout. Sometimes the small changes will add energy to the group. 让每个会议都不一样。做一些和以往会议不一样的安排，比如改变场所、时间或者房间布置。有时一些小小的改变可以增强活力。 Meetings without specific objectives tend to achieve nothing specific.
没有明确目的的会议常常导致什么都不明确。
