The time the meeting agenda should be circulated depends on the importance and size of the meeting. The more important the meeting, the earlier the agenda should be circulated. Some meetings will only need to be circulated the day before if there are only a few participants. Generally more participants mean earlier circulation of agenda.

This is because the agenda can be made into a timetable. Each topic will go for a certain amount of time and when the topic has been discussed for this amount of time the timekeeper will then notify the coordinator that it is time for a new topic. For example

Training should be discussed for 15 minutes. Once it is discussed for 14 minutes the timekeeper should notify the coordinator or the head manager that the next topic needs to start.

There are many documents that could be needed. It depends on the type of meeting as well. Some meetings will just require an agenda and notice. However some meeting will require a lot of documents which need to be reviewed. The two most important documents will be the notice and the agenda.

For this meeting about the Sales of Thai Massage Shop, the style will be semi-formal. This means that it will be still be taken seriously and all discussions will be taken in minutes, however the seriousness and strictness will not be as high. People will be able to place their opinions whenever without being called.
