(Heather Mcilwraith photo) Get the most out of your meetings Experts say 30 per cent of the time spent in meetings is wasted. First, make sure your meeting is necessary and ask whether the reason for it could be settled over a cup of coffee or by telephone conversation. If the meeting is necessary, decide on an agenda in writing including what you plan to achieve - and distribute it in advance. Start the meeting on time and focus on the issues to be discussed and the results to be achiev• ed. I always try to start and end on a unify- ing theme. This makes for a more positive meeting, outcome, and action to he followed. TIME:TIPS: a series on improving your productivity by Daniel Stamp. Priority. Management Systems Inc.

Poverty is a worldwide problem and 1987 has been designated International Year of Shelter for the Homeless. The London Area Women's Institute presented the Maryn Pardy scholarships to three young people - Catherine Sutherland of Middlesex County and Susan Moodie and Heather Gillett, both of Oxford County.
