Weekly Team Meetings in Ninety provide a structured environment for teams to stay aligned, identify and solve issues, and track progress on goals. This article covers how to start, join, schedule, and modify your Weekly Team Meeting and provides an overview of the standard agenda.

The Weekly Meeting Agenda

The default weekly team meeting agenda is designed for a 90-minute leadership team meeting. For a full breakdown of the weekly team meeting agenda, read our 90u Library brief.

Agenda

1. Segue (5 minutes). A time to transition from working in the business to working on the business and a chance to connect as people, build trust, and improve team health.
2. Data (5 minutes). Review, at a glance, the health of your team's Scorecards. Celebrate KPIs that are performing well and make an Issue of any that need to be discussed.
3. Rocks (5 minutes). Offer a chance for each team member to declare their Rocks as on or off track. If any conversations are necessary, right-click the Rock and select Make it an Issue from the dropdown.
4. Headlines (5 minutes). Read through team and company announcements together. Typically, Headlines do not require formal discussion, but if your team wants to discuss one further, right click it and make it an Issue.
5. To-Dos (5 minutes). Most To-Dos are seven-day action items. Use this time to review the past-due or soon-to-be-due To-Dos. If any discussion is needed, just right-click the To-Do and make it an Issue.
6. Issues (60 minutes). Resolving Issues is the primary purpose of team meetings. Issues are the problems, obstacles, ideas, or opportunities to discuss and solve as a team. 
7. Conclude (5 minutes). You can use this time to recap next steps and additional action times. Before sending the team on their way, everyone provides their rating for the meeting.
