By Elena McDowell


An organization is a big group or an association which requires a proper planning and policies to enhance efficiency. These groups have numerous documents that they keep in their libraries. These books are very important to the organization since they keep all the records of the performance of the organization. The books kept by an organization include financial statement, employee detail book, register, the payroll and the minute books.

These books are very important to the organization since they act as reference material for the future performance of the organization. In the decision making process involves a set of progressive phases that require the sharing of ideas to come up with the best decision for the growth of the organization.

The information may include the strategies to be used to enhance effective work performance and achieving the objectives of the group or institution. Most groups hold meetings for different purposes and with different intentions.

To begin with, the junior employees may decide to hold meetings that concern their work environment as well as the condition and performance of their work. Here they tend to discuss very important information that would either lead to improved performance or decrease their level of production depending with the circumstance at hand.

Involving employees in any decision making gives them more courage and motivation to work extra hard to achieve the objective. It also gives them the motivation that of being part at parcel of the management.

A government agency may meet to evaluate their performance and even discuss the methods that they may use to offer the best services to the general public. This may include provision of essential public goods like clean water, roads, schools, hospitals as well as the electricity. They may also meet to discuss the issue of security measures in the country and look for the best ways of ensuring proper and effective security to its citizens.

The whole process therefore is combination of a series of meetings that are held to facilitate every phase of the decision making process. These meetings therefore require proper record keeping of all the debates conducted in all the meetings. This ensures that the information is available for future use whenever it is required, and that it becomes more relevant to the future performance of organization.

There are different types of meetings that are held at different levels in the management set up of an organization. It can be at the departmental level where employees of a given department meet to make decisions concerning their department. It can also be at the top management level where the top managers are to give the direction of what is to be done within the organization.
