Parking Lot
Often times during a meeting a "bunny trail" may begin between 2 members of the group. By using the parking lot method, the team members know the "bunny trail" may be addressed at the next meeting and we are able to move on without appearing to trivialize any potentially valuable thoughts.

Good for you. When you can proven techniques you advance the possibilities to meet your mission and goals. Team is important and providing leadership with intelligence and experience helps your team to accept ownership.

I have also seen this used very effectively. First, it keeps focus on the agenda items, but second, it reinforces that all comments are valid, but gives them a proper place to be addressed at the right time. This is a very effective facilitation technique as well.

Christopher,
Good meetings have are a result of preparations before the meeting, during the meeting and post meeting follow/up.
