Writing exercise


Dear all AP Colleagues,
I have got many complaints about a lot of people cannot join meetings on time, sometimes, they were late but without notice, which led to the delay of the meeting. It also impacts other attendance work efficiency.
In order to improve this situation, I would like to build a formal process to make sure everyone joins the meeting on time. This is the part of our Company culture, we will continue to focus on it and hope everyone can follow it. I emphasize here that it will be one item of your annual assessment.

Detail of the process
1. When you get the meeting invitation, you need to decide to accept /refuse, please response in advance
2. Everyone has to arrive at the meeting room before the meeting about 5 minutes
3. If you change your schedule or have other urgent things, please notice the meeting host and explain the reason
4. If you are the decision maker in this meeting, you must attend if you haven’t refused in advance

Thanks for your cooperation, I hope this process can make everyone work smoother and more successful. If you have any concern, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Regard,
Amy
