I was reminded of the importance of an agenda recently. The presenter for this particular presentation neglected to mention what she was going to discuss during the session. I found that during the presentation, participants were constantly interrupting her with questions; most of which, would be answered with information that was coming up...
An agenda lets the presenter control the dissemination of the information and not the participants. I am not saying that participants shouldn't ask questions, or that the session should not be interactive - but that having an agenda lets the audience know what to expect and it keeps the presenter organized.
