Turning meeting conclusions into tasks

Choose a flow

Situation

A project meeting agrees on actions.

Recommendation

Record action-type conclusions and assign them as Tasks; the meeting closes only when conclusions are handled.

Why

Open action / conditional / follow_up conclusions keep the meeting open so agreed work does not fall through. Follow_up items carry over to the next meeting.

Steps

  1. During the meeting, record conclusions with their type.
  2. For action conclusions, create/assign Tasks.
  3. Track the Tasks to done.
  4. Close or carry over the rest, then close the meeting.

Avoid

  • Write actions in free-text minutes without assigning Tasks.

Roles & permissions

Meeting chair; PM; Task assignees.
