The 60-Minute Meeting Plan

A simple checklist anyone can run. End the hour with a clear 7-day action.

Checklist (run-of-show)

  1. Welcome (5 min) — One sentence each: why you came, what you hope to fix.
  2. Pick a local focus (10 min) — List 3–5 issues you care about here. Circle one that feels doable now.
  3. Define a one-week outcome (10 min) — “In 7 days, we will have … (one concrete result).”
  4. Design the action (20 min) — Use the Action Builder below.
  5. Divide tasks & set dates (10 min) — Who does what, by when. Put it on calendars.
  6. Close (5 min) — Confirm the action day/time. Take a group photo for your win post.

Action Builder (use this in Step 4)

  1. Visible locally: Where will people see it? (library, city hall, park, online neighborhood group)
  2. Tangible outcome: What proves it happened? (signatures, meeting booked, photos, letters submitted)
  3. Small crew: What can 2–5 people do well in a week?
  4. Simple story: One-sentence message: “We are … to achieve … because ….”
