If you just want the "how to" guide:

  • Make “speeches” – Talk as frequently as possible and at great length. Illustrate your ‘points’ by long anecdotes and accounts of personal experiences.
  • Slow it down – advocate caution, avoid haste
  • Where possible refer all matters to committees (never fewer than five) for “consideration”
  • Bring up irrelevant issues as frequently as possible.
  • Haggle over precise wordings of communications, minutes, resolutions.
  • Refer back to matters decided upon at the last meeting and attempt to re-open the question of the advisability of that decision.
