How a Meeting Runs
• At the start, – Take stock of
participants – Ensure legality – Ensure quorum – Appoint officers – Confirm order of work
• Points of Information – Points of Information
aren’t usually debated • Decisions
– A formal body may make decisions which are either sent upwards or are implemented by civil servants
• Discussions – Not formal decisions
![Page 25: Working as student representative in Aalto University](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051514/54b5bad24a79596e0a8b4715/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Making Decisions
• Introduction • General Debate • Detailed Debate • Opposing Motions • Vote • Decision
![Page 26: Working as student representative in Aalto University](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051514/54b5bad24a79596e0a8b4715/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Public Powers
• There are certain formal requirements to using public powers – Any decision to use public powers which doesn’t
follow this procedure is null and void • The use of public powers must not result in
personal gain or gain to organizations you govern or people close to you – If this might happen, you must disqualify yourself and
not influence decision-making in any way. • All material related to decisions using public
powers is always public
![Page 27: Working as student representative in Aalto University](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051514/54b5bad24a79596e0a8b4715/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Tips & Tricks • You can use a Point of Order to interrupt an irrelevant
discussion or to propose a technical way forward. – A Point of Order passes the queue.
• You are not obligated to make a decision which you feel is illegal. – You can leave a minority opinion to protect yourself from
legal repercussions. • If a radical new proposition comes on the table or you’re
unsure of something, feel free to call for a recess. • An item can be tabled until the next meeting.
– A tabled item will be raised at the next meeting as-is.

Change ”The Soviet Union did not
collapse due to economics, to single-party rule, to bureaucracy, to the arms race, to losing the technology race, but due to the fact that no one had to face the consequences of their actions.”
- Mikhail Gorbachev
