Lesson 3

Meeting Synthesis Prompts

After a decision meeting:

Here are the notes/transcript from a decision meeting:

[Paste content]

Extract:

1. DECISIONS MADE: What was explicitly agreed upon? Who agreed? Note if anyone didn't explicitly agree.

2. OPEN QUESTIONS: What was discussed but not resolved?

3. ACTION ITEMS: Who committed to doing what by when? Include implicit commitments, not just explicit ones.

4. DISAGREEMENTS: Any unresolved tension between participants? What was the specific disagreement?

5. ALIGNMENT RISK: Based on the discussion, where are two people most likely to walk away with different interpretations of what was agreed?

Format as a post-meeting summary I can send within 2 hours of the meeting to close the interpretation gap.

After a discovery / brainstorming meeting:
