Flying Minutes is a feature with the Premium and Ultimate Plans. If your board subscribes to the Essentials Plan then you will not be able to see Flying Minutes

The second part of the Flying Minute is the Vote.

This is the stage after the discussion and the amount of time open for the vote is set by the Host

  • only the Chair, Administrator, Board Secretary or Senior Executive can be a host

  • once everyone has voted the Flying Minute automatically closes

There are two ways to access the vote:

Email: In the email received, you can click directly on the blue button or paste the link into your browser. Note: if you are not currently logged into BoardPro, first you will be directed to the login page

  • This will open up the Flying Minute Directly, where you can cast your vote

Between Meeting Page: You can vote directly from this page or click on the title to open the flying minute and see how the vote goes.

On this page, you can see:

  1. The stage the Flying Minute is in

  2. How much time is left on the vote

  3. Blue Cast Your Vote button

  4. The results: see how many people have been voting and how many are left to vote.

When you vote:

  1. Your name will be displayed with how you voted

  2. You have the options to Support, Oppose or Abstain

  3. Add a comment on why you voted (optional)

  4. Please vote carefully -your vote cannot be changed.

If you are unable to cast your own vote, whether you cannot access a computer or mobile device or you do not have login access to BoardPro, you can request that the Host vote for you.

  • They can also add a comment on your behalf as to why you chose to vote this way

  • You will receive an email confirmation of how the vote was cast for you, so that there is transparency
