The Guide for Meetings and Organisations by Nicholas Edwin Renton is an Australian manual of chairmanship (often called parliamentary procedure in other countries), with a particular focus on voluntary associations and their particular needs.

Since the release of the 6th Edition in 1994 the book has been divided into two volumes the first of which is sub-titled "Guide for Voluntary Associations" and the second "Guide for Meetings".

Renton's Guide is used widely in Voluntary Associations in Australia, including Toastmasters International District 70 and the NSW Returned and Services League.
