Meet your facilitator
Sarah Taylor formed her company Meetings Into Minutes in 2016 with the aim to provide professional, independent minute taking services to various companies around Australia.
Over the last 7 years, Sarah has grown her company from a client base of 0, and now works with over 50 different organisations and runs a small team to meet the demands both nationally, and internationally, as well as being appointed Company Secretary to several of these organisations.
Sarah diversified her business when she was contacted by a number of people to teach them how to take minutes, and her Masterclass was created. Her aim was to deliver a course that showed a hands-on approach to minute taking and to pass on her knowledge of minute taking to those who have had no formal training.
