On-the-fly

Making decisions or changes during a meeting without prior planning is commonly referred to as “on-the-fly.” These decisions are often impromptu and are made in response to emerging situations or discussions. On-the-fly decisions can be necessary when unforeseen issues or opportunities arise during a meeting, and participants need to adapt quickly. Effective facilitators and decision-makers should be capable of making on-the-fly decisions when needed, balancing the need for spontaneity with the requirement for thoughtful consideration.
