🔹 1. Define the Objective of Each Meeting

Each meeting should have a clear goal to stay focused and productive. Examples include:

• Initial Review Meeting – Present a summary of all feedback collected
• Team-Specific Review Meetings – Dive deeper into feedback related to logistics, content, tech, etc.
• Action Planning Meeting – Decide on changes or improvements for future events
• Final Alignment Meeting – Confirm tasks, responsibilities, and timelines for implementation

🔹 2. Prepare a Clear Agenda in Advance

Create a structured agenda and share it at least 1–2 days before the meeting.

Sample Agenda – Action Review Meeting:

1. Welcome & Objectives
2. Overview of Feedback Findings (10 mins)
3. Departmental Review of Issues (e.g., logistics, media, sessions)
4. Discussion of Possible Solutions (breakout or roundtable)
5. Decision-Making on Key Actions
6. Assigning Ownership & Deadlines
7. Wrap-Up & Next Steps

✅ Attach summary reports, charts, or themes ahead of time for review.

🔹 3. Invite the Right Stakeholders

To ensure effective decision-making, include:

• Event manager(s)
• Department/team leads (Logistics, Tech, Media, Communications)
• Volunteer coordinator
• HR or performance evaluator (if involved)
• Youth rep or participant feedback ambassador (optional, for transparency)

🔹 4. Use Collaborative Tools

For in-person or virtual coordination, use tools like:

• Google Meet or Zoom – For remote meetings
• Google Docs/Slides – Share live-editable summaries
• Jamboard, Miro, or MURAL – Visual brainstorming
• Trello/Asana/Notion – To track decisions and assign follow-up tasks

Pro Tip: Record decisions directly into a shared decision log or post-meeting summary doc.

🔹 5. Structure Discussions Around Actionable Themes

Use themes from feedback (e.g., timing issues, tech difficulties, communication gaps) to guide discussions.

Example Theme: Event Timing

• What specific timing issues were raised?
• What caused them?
• What can be done differently?
• Who will lead this improvement?

Repeat for each major feedback category.

🔹 6. Document Decisions in Real-Time

Appoint a note-taker or use a shared notes doc to:

• Record what was decided
• Identify who is responsible
• Set clear deadlines
• Log next check-in date

Create a Decision Log like this:

🔹 7. Follow-Up After Each Meeting

After the meeting:

• Email a summary of decisions and assigned tasks
• Set reminders for owners to complete tasks
• Schedule the next review or check-in meeting

Optional: Share progress updates in a team WhatsApp group or internal portal to keep momentum.

🔹 8. Close the Loop with a Wrap-Up Meeting

Once changes are decided and tasks are underway:

• Host a final review meeting
• Celebrate improvements or wins
• Note any items to revisit in future planning
• Archive documentation for institutional memory

🎯 Summary: Key Steps in Coordinated Review Meetings

🔹 1. Set Up a Centralized Task Tracking System

To avoid confusion and missed responsibilities, all feedback review tasks should be documented in a centralized platform.

Recommended Tools:

• Trello (boards & checklists)
• Asana (project timelines & responsibilities)
• Notion (all-in-one dashboards)
• Google Sheets (simpler teams)

How to structure it:

This makes it easy to track progress, assign ownership, and spot bottlenecks.

🔹 2. Schedule Regular Check-Ins

Establish a routine check-in schedule based on the event review timeline. This helps keep momentum and ensures issues don’t fall through the cracks.

📅 Suggested Frequency:

• Weekly check-ins for the first month after the event
• Bi-weekly as tasks reduce

🗓 Check-In Agenda Template:

1. Quick recap of last week’s priorities
2. Progress updates from each team member
3. Identify blockers – what’s preventing task completion?
4. Clarify responsibilities or deadlines
5. Update the task board in real-time
6. Assign next steps and confirm next meeting

Pro Tip: Keep meetings short (30–45 mins) and focused.

🔹 3. Establish Clear Roles and Task Ownership

Every task should have:

• One clear owner
• A defined deadline
• A specific expected outcome (e.g., “Summarize 40 open-ended responses”)

Make it known that even if others assist, one person is ultimately responsible for completion and reporting.

🔹 4. Use Reminders and Alerts

Set automated reminders using your task tool or calendar:

• Google Calendar reminders
• Trello/Asana deadline alerts
• WhatsApp team pings (if informal coordination works better)

🔹 5. Ensure Feedback is Processed, Not Just Collected

It’s not just about gathering feedback, but actually acting on it.

Create a rule:

“No feedback item is considered complete until we’ve identified what it means and what we’ll do with it.”

This means:

• Every rating or comment must be read
• Summarized into themes or categories
• Connected to a decision or improvement suggestion

🔹 6. Report Progress Transparently

At each check-in, share a simple summary:

Example:

“We’ve processed 80% of the feedback. 3 themes have emerged: technical delays, desire for more networking, and praise for practical workshops. Two of these are already being worked into the June Youth Conference plan.”

This builds trust and shows action is being taken.

🔹 7. Close the Loop with a Debrief Report

Once all feedback is processed:

• Hold a final review meeting to reflect on findings
• Update organizational records or SOPs
• Share a mini “What We Learned” presentation with the team
• Archive feedback summaries for future planning

🎯 Summary: Key Elements of Saypro’s Feedback Task Management

Distributing feedback surveys through the SayPro website to all event attendees, speakers, and employees is a strategic way to gather insights about the event’s overall success and identify areas for improvement. Below is a detailed breakdown of how you can structure and execute the feedback collection process:

1. Designing the Feedback Surveys

The first step is to create surveys that are tailored to the different groups: event attendees, speakers, and employees. These surveys should focus on collecting feedback that is relevant to each group’s experience.

• Attendee Survey:
  • Focus on aspects such as the event content, speakers, location, registration process, schedule, and overall satisfaction.
  • Questions could include:
    • How would you rate the overall event experience?
    • Were the sessions relevant to your interests?
    • Did the event meet your expectations?
    • How was the quality of the speakers and their presentations?
    • Were the event logistics (location, timing, etc.) satisfactory?
    • What could be improved for future events?
• Speaker Survey:
  • Focus on aspects like the organization of the event, support received, attendee engagement, and how well their sessions were received.
  • Questions could include:
    • How satisfied were you with the pre-event communication and support?
    • Were the event resources (AV equipment, room setup) adequate?
    • How would you rate the engagement level of the attendees?
    • Did you feel your session was well-received?
    • What improvements would you suggest for future events?
• Employee Survey:
  • Focus on internal logistics, the ease of event preparation and execution, team collaboration, and any areas for process improvement.
  • Questions could include:
    • How effective was the communication within the event team?
    • Were you satisfied with the tools/resources available for your role?
    • How well do you think the event objectives were achieved?
    • What could be improved in the planning and execution phase for future events?

2. Creating a Dedicated Feedback Section on the SayPro Website

To make the feedback process smooth, create a clear, easy-to-navigate section on the SayPro website. Ensure the following:

• Landing Page for Surveys:
  • Add a prominent “Feedback” or “Survey” section on the SayPro website.
  • Include a brief description explaining the importance of the feedback and the goal of gathering input for improvement.
  • Provide clear instructions on how to fill out the survey and how long it will take (make it clear the survey is voluntary but appreciated).
• Survey Access for Different Groups:
  • Use a segmentation system to ensure that the right group (attendees, speakers, or employees) is directed to the correct survey. This could be handled by:
    • Directing users to specific survey links based on their role (attendees, speakers, employees).
    • Sending personalized emails with links to the relevant survey after the event (email tracking system can help here).

3. Distributing the Surveys

Once the surveys are created and the website section is set up, distribute the surveys to all relevant participants.

• Email Invitations:
  • Send personalized emails to attendees, speakers, and employees with direct links to the survey. The email should explain the purpose of the survey and emphasize the value of their input. Make sure to highlight:
    • A clear subject line (e.g., “We Value Your Feedback: SayPro Event Survey”).
    • A call to action (e.g., “Please take 5 minutes to fill out our feedback form”).
    • The deadline by which the survey must be completed.
• Website Announcement:
  • Post an announcement on the SayPro website’s homepage or event-specific page, encouraging everyone to complete the feedback survey.
  • If possible, use a pop-up or banner that links to the survey page.
• Reminders:
  • Send a reminder email halfway through the feedback collection period, especially if the response rate is low.
  • Include a thank you message to those who have already completed the survey, and encourage those who haven’t yet participated to do so.

4. Incentives and Motivation

To encourage participation, consider offering incentives. This could include:

• A chance to win a gift card or a discount for future events.
• A small token of appreciation for completing the survey (like exclusive content or a downloadable resource).
• A summary of the feedback report shared with participants, so they can see how their responses contributed to future improvements.

5. Tracking Completion and Reminders

It’s essential to track the completion rate of the surveys to ensure full participation. Implement tools that allow you to:

• Monitor who has filled out the survey and who hasn’t.
• Send automated reminder emails to participants who have not completed the survey.
• Set a clear deadline for survey completion and communicate this in all reminders.

6. Analyzing the Results

Once the surveys have been completed, analyze the feedback to identify trends, strengths, and areas for improvement.

• Quantitative Data: This could include Likert-scale questions (e.g., 1 to 5 rating) and can be easily analyzed to generate statistics like the average satisfaction rating for sessions, speakers, and event logistics.
• Qualitative Data: Open-ended questions can provide valuable insights. Consider using text analysis tools or manually reviewing responses for recurring themes or constructive suggestions.

7. Sharing the Results

Finally, summarize the results of the feedback and share them with the team and, if appropriate, the participants:

• Internal Team Feedback: Present the results to the event planning team and stakeholders so they can learn from the event and make improvements for future events.
• Participant Transparency: Share a general overview of the feedback with attendees, speakers, and employees, showing them how their input is being used to improve future events.

8. Continuous Improvement

Use the feedback to make continuous improvements to the SayPro event process. Implement any actionable insights and make a note to follow up on improvements in future events.

Conclusion

By distributing feedback surveys via the SayPro website and following a clear, structured process, you can ensure that you receive valuable insights from all parties involved in the event. This helps improve future event planning, attendee satisfaction, speaker engagement, and overall event quality.
