FAQ:
What is a Parliamentarian?
A parliamentarian is your best friend on a Board of Directors. We’re experts in interpreting and applying Robert’s Rules of Order for business meetings and other deliberative assemblies. These rules enable groups to efficiently, ethically, and fairly discuss and document what business actions are taken to move a company forward.
When should I hire a Parliamentarian?
Have you ever had terribly long or boring meetings? Meetings where people go off tangents, or disagreements sideline and derail any action? Or where there’s little to no engagement between Board members and no one really knows what they should be doing as as group? In many cases, a Parliamentarian can help stabilize meetings. We can help create more efficient sessions where actions are made, and also help increase Board member participation to get things accomplished in a timely, ethical and democratic manner. On top of that, we can help explain the importance of Bylaws and navigating this critical document to ensure everyone in the company is following its own rules and regulations.
Who hires Parliamentarians?
All types of decision-making bodies use parliamentary procedure on a daily basis, and they hire Parliamentarians to help navigate complex business decisions. Organizations that hire Parliamentarians include: the U.S House of Representatives and Senate, local school boards, city councils, nonprofit boards, sororities and fraternities, church groups, political organizations, unions and any society that uses Robert’s Rules of Order.
