What’s more, follow-ups on RSVP are automated and participants may be able to view others’ responses, eliminating the hassle to coordinate with different parties.
  • Plan the annual board agenda in one dashboard. Efficiently organize and oversee the annual board agenda with Convene’s Agenda Planner. Plan and plot topics across multiple meetings in a single dashboard and easily track the allocated time for each topic, ensuring streamlined board discussions.
