### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great Book About Parliamentary Procedure
  

*by P***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 31, 2012*

Dealing with parliamentary procedure is akin to watching ice freeze.  Notwithstanding this, we have many Boards and managers who, when not asking us for answers to procedural issues associated with meetings, ask us for a source to learn more about parliamentary procedure.  Referring them to Robert's Rules of Order is tantamount to dooming the process before it begins.The latest edition of Robert's Rules of Order, 11th Edition contains 716 pages, and to an individual without background in parliamentary procedure is impossible to understand.So where to go?  Well, we now have a great book to recommend.  Our colleague, Jim Slaughter, has recently penned the Complete Idiot's Guide to Parliamentary Procedure - Fast Track.  Although I am not a fan of many "Idiot" guides, this book is the exception to the rule.  The book is extremely useful both to the person who wants a general understanding of parliamentary procedure with references where necessary to Robert's Rules of Order, but also to the expert practitioner as a great refresher course.  The book is only 138 pages with a clear and sometimes humorous content.  We strongly recommend this book to anyone that is required to act as a chairperson at a meeting, who desires to understand general parliamentary procedure and as a solid starting point to running a meeting in general.

    Invaluable Resource for Church Leaders
  

*by S***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 1, 2013*

Jim Slaughter's book is one of the best new additions to my bookshelf.Chapter 11 on "Meeting Minutes" is worth the price of the book and I hope to get it into the hands of every Pastor and Church Board Secretary under the jurisdiction of the Office I serve. Chapter 10 on "Order of Business and Agenda" is another great chapter as is Chapter 3, "The Motion: How  Things are Done in Meetings".  While most Church Board meetings operate on a relatively informal basis, more carefully planned board meetings with just the right amount of structure would result in both greater effectiveness and efficiency. And when a board is effective and efficient, those who serve on it are more likely to feel they have invested their time well.Jim is a professional parliamentarian who knows his stuff, but he understands that different organizations need to be able to function differently. The Idiot's Guide lives up to its billing as a fast-track reference; and, it is user-friendly. It won't bog you down. Jim makes it a fun and informative read - which is no small accomplishment when the subject is Robert's Rules!

Once this book is mastered, Check out another book co-authored by Slaughter, Notes and Comments on Robert's Rules.
