Having some rules of conduct for your team member meetings in your women's ministry can go a long way to avoiding problems that arise. It keeps meetings free of excessive talking and things that just take up time in the end.

Meeting Conduct Suggestions

• Silence phones.
• Arrive on time.
• Be considerate of the opinion of others.
• Don’t talk over someone else.
• Don’t interrupt.
• Manage your conversation contribution. In other words don’t hog the conversation or make long speeches.
• Respect the agenda. (Keep to specified topics)
• Realize you may have to compromise your own ideas to a degree.
• Get along with other team members.
• No gossiping allowed.
• No drama.
• Keep all interaction and conversation at meetings confidential.

Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. 1 Corinthians 10:31 (KJV)
