How do you track outcomes from meetings? Esp. if you run multiple recurring meetings (committee meetings, team meetings etc.) where there are multiple decisions or action items.
Rules for meetings I try to follow. I got these from a book but I forgot which.<p>- All meetings must have an agenda distributed in advance, stating purpose and topics.<p>- All meetings must have a time limit and no more than an hour.<p>- Every meeting has someone assigned to take notes of decisions, questions, and action items, including responsibility and expectations agreed to. The notes get distributed to the attendees shortly after the meeting (email works).<p>- Stick to the agenda and schedule. Respect everyone’s time.<p>You can take notes on paper or on a laptop. The people responsible for following up can transfer to whatever medium works — tickets, issues, memos, more meetings.
