Not TECHNICALLY an adult, but I'm now Vice President and Treasurer of a school club of around 30 members. I run the fiscal/fundraising committee, and I needed this! Thanks a bunch for everything this channel does ;D
I run a weekly meeting with my ten technicians who each have different roles. It's a good time to collaborate, but most work on their own projects and only report to me when something is broken. The longest meetings happen after mass emails come out from HR.
The one main characteristic of an eclair is that it's made from pate à choux, the same kind of mixture that makes up cream puffs and churros. A doughnut dough can be classified under bread or batter.
While this isn't likely to come up in professional work settings, it can come up in other settings depending on how casual they are. If someone is being disruptive at the meeting, I would recommend using the following steps, like a school teacher would: 1) Ask the person briefly to kindly refrain from what they're doing, then continue the discussion. Usually, they don't know they're being disruptive, so pointing it out quickly like this will get them to realize it and stop. 2) If the meeting allows, call a brief break to pull the person aside and ask why they're disrupting the meeting. If the meeting doesn't allow breaks (too important/short), pause the current discussion and ask the disruptive person if they have something important to contribute. A lot of times, being put into the center of attention like this will cause them to back down and stop being disruptive. Regardless of their response, make sure to warn them that if they continue to be disruptive, you're going to eject them from the meeting. 3) Eject them from the meeting. It's embarrassing, but they were warned, and that time they're wasting with their disruption is valuable to everyone.
Every time I look at this thumbnail, my brain -- for some reason -- insists on reading this as "how to effectively ruin a meeting" This video is much more useful than the one my brain insists on expecting.
What about taking minutes? This might not be a big thing for super small meetings, but if someone isn't able to attend, or you need to reference what was said at a previous meeting, it's imperative to take good minutes.
Good point! Minutes (concise notes about what happened during the meeting) are super important, and they're often the way you're going to follow up with your meeting attendees during step 9. At Complexly, we usually take minutes within our agenda in a google doc so everyone has instant access, but you can do it all sorts of ways. -Sarah
1.Rachel is my RUclips spirit animal. 2. Will you help adult my spice tray,* it's a mess.** 3. Donuts... want. *Actually, I keep my spice jars on a large lazy susan.

We need a How To Adult on telling the difference between a donut and eclair. I didn't expect that to be an issue but here we are
Now that's a thought thats going to fester

Many people use "doughnut" instead of "pastry" as a general term
This may irk me more than discovering that people use entree to mean main dish
Great video, I'm going to be in charge of running and planning a meeting this month so this definitely helped a lot! Thanks!

I NEED AN ADULT AND YOU'RE MY ADULTS
LET'S ADULT TOGETHER, I CAN GET YOU SOME DONUTS I GUESS (no, like, seriously, hit me up if you guys are in Poland or something, donuts on me!)
The first meeting I ran, I brought a box of donuts. Turns out, all four of the men who came were watching their weight and sugar. So no one touched the donuts. :/ wa wa
How to talk to the media would go with this closely.
Or: How (Not) to talk to the media.
When do I get to watch her eat doughnuts
Meetings are a complete waste of time
Everyone, please watch my tiny nature videos. There is no talking in them. Shhh!
