How to Use & Customize This Template
1
Distribute Pre-Meeting Agenda

2
Capture Key Decisions Live
Focus heavily on capturing unambiguous decisions (DEC-XX) and explicit action item owners (ACT-XX).

Send Post-Meeting Summary
Send the completed Markdown or PDF minutes to Slack or email within 60 minutes of adjournment.
Pro Formatting & Best Practice Tips
- Every action item MUST have one single designated owner and a specific calendar deadline.
- Separate "Key Decisions" from general discussion to give executive leadership a 30-second summary.
- Record absent members to preserve institutional accountability.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why record decisions separately from discussion notes?
Executives and team members frequently need to look back 3 months later to confirm why a strategic decision was made without reading through paragraphs of conversational transcripts.
How long should meeting minutes be preserved?
For legal, corporate governance, and SOC2 compliance audits, formal board and executive product minutes are typically retained for 3 to 7 years.
