Holaspirit comes with two default meeting types (Tactical and Governance meetings), but you can also create your own meeting structure with re-usable meeting templates that capture your team's routines and processes.

👤 Only Administrators can create and manage meeting templates

Create and customize a meeting template

To create a meeting template:

• Go to the Administration menu

⭐ Tip: Add a custom step to your template as a dedicated space for the meeting’s official notes. The meeting notes can include updates, meeting highlights, news, decision...

A crucial part of the meeting is the Agenda step: it allows for tensions to be discussed and processed. The meeting Secretary can create next actions and items, as results to the tension, to hold members accountable and keep things moving!

Next actions and items include a new checklist, action, metric, project, OKR, tension or governance items (election, adding a role...).

To define the next actions available in the Agenda step:

• Click on Add steps and select Agenda
• Click on the "plus" icon to select the activities  you want included in your meeting

📌 Note: If no activity is selected within the Agenda step, you will see the tensions added by the circle's members and secretary without being able to add evolutions to them.

• Click on Create when you're done
