      Meeting rounds and how they work.

      What are meeting rounds in Huma?

      • Everyone can be an attendee of a meeting
      • A meeting can have one or multiple attendees
      • Attendees and host have access to the content of the meeting.
      • Choose from a predefined meeting template or create your own.
      • Do you wish to create a 1-1 meeting?  Check out 1-on-1s here.

      How do I create a new meeting round template? 

      If you want to create your own meeting template, go to "Templates", and here you will see a list of your own templates. To create a new template, click "Add Template" and then fill out the name, description, and meeting agenda.

      You can also find meeting templates created by Huma under "templates", and just click "use template" if you dont want to make your own. 

      Can I edit an existing template? 

      Yes, you can. When you are editing in "meeting agenda" you can delete or fill in talking points. 
      If you want to add a talking point, just go to the bottom of the page and fill out the blank "add a talking point" and click the "+" sign. 

      If you want to delete a talking point, click the three black dots and "delete". 

      What permissions do I need to manage templates? 

      You need a "system role" with full access to meetings. With this permission you can add, update and delete templates. 

      How to set up a meeting rounds in Huma

      Click "Add meeting round" and choose a pre filled template created by Huma, or your own. 

      1. Set agenda
      Fill out "meeting description" and set the agenda for the meeting, by filling out "talking points".
      2. Choose attendees and host for every meeting. 
      3. Start meeting round and choose due date. 
       
      You can then go to each meeting and fill out "notes",  "tasks" and more "talking points". 

      The meeting host can add 'preparation notes' to agenda items. These notes are hidden from attendees while the meeting status is OPEN and become visible only after the meeting is completed.

      Add follow-up tasks to each "talking point" by clicking "add task". Task can be assigned to

      • One of the attendees
      • A specific person
      • A team or location

       If you create a task, the person the task is assigned to will be notified immediately
      (in status: DRAFT). 

      Members of a team or location can be assigned directly or they can claim the task themselves.

      If a task is shared with an entire Team or Location, it is marked as completed once one person on that Team/Location completes it. 

       

      The process

      Before a meeting: 

      1. Create multiple meeting via a meeting round.
      2. Select attendees and if the meeting is about someone specific.
      3. When meeting is in DRAFT attendees can't see the meeting.
      4. When the agenda is set you can share it with attendees
