The organising other meetings checklist is located in the S drive- Compliance folder- Under Processes- Meetings- General Meeting Process Checklist.
The person arranging the meeting might decide that they want the meeting done in a specified time frame so might suggest to the colleague/3rd party, the date they have in mind.
They will either accept or decline this date.
When a person wants to arrange a meeting with another colleague/3rd party, they would firstly contact the colleagues/3rd party via email, phone or face to face including the agenda of the meeting, they will ask when they are free, suggesting if the person has any date in mind.
If they don't respond right away you may need to chase them via email/phone or face to face to make sure they provide a response as to whether or not they would like the meeting to go ahead.
Draft the email in the following template structure:
Dear (Name),
I would like to arrange a meeting regarding (agenda). Please let me know when you would be free for this meeting to take place and this can be booked into the diary.
If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Kind Regards,
(Your name)
Asking: Set a time, date and agenda (Step 1)
They will then get back to you, when they are free
If it is a colleague that works internally then you can consider sharing calendars this will mean you will select a slot they are free so more likely they will agree.
If they don't have a preferred date then refer back to your calendar to suggest a date and time and they will either accept or reject this date.
If they reject, then suggest another date until you find a date that corresponds with both your diaries until they accept.
If they accept follow on and book the meeting room.
You then need to refer back to your calendar to see if there is a slot free for that date and time- need to consider potential working hours of attendees (might not always be 9-5)
Asking: Set a time, date and agenda (Step 2)
The person arranging the meeting might decide that this is an important meeting so they want the meeting done in a specified time frame so might suggest to the colleague/ 3rd party, the date they have in mind.
When a person decides they need to arrange a meeting with another colleague/ 3rd party, they would firstly contact the colleague via email, phone or face to face telling them what the meeting is about (agenda) and that this meeting is something they have no choice on therefore have to attend.

Setting the location
Need to check that the appropriate meeting room is free for that date/time via Gill/Reception. Book the room.
If there is no meeting room, will need to ask whether the other party will consider going out of house for the meeting. If the meeting is very urgent, outside office hours to have the meeting will need to be discussed.
Asking: Setting a location
If they don't want to go out of house and meeting rooms are fully booked, another date/time will need to be arranged until there is a meeting room available and both parties agree on the date and time.
