Meeting prep

A short brief before each call on who’s on it, what’s open, and what you promised.

You need this if…

  • You join a call and spend the first five minutes catching up on your own project.
  • Someone mentions what you promised last time and you don’t remember promising it.
  • You’re searching your inbox for a name while the call is already ringing.
01What it reads
  • Calendar
  • Email
  • Meeting transcripts
  • Notes
  • Contacts
02What you get

A half-page brief before each call: who’s on it, what’s still open, and what you said you’d do.

03What stays with you

It reads and briefs you. Nothing goes out to the people on the call.

04How you ask

“Prep me for my two o’clock.”
