The Annotated Meeting

New

Meetings are expensive. The details and decisions are important. But no one reads the minutes! Are you tired of referring back to a decision in a meeting only to find that everyone remembers it differently? Or no one remembers it at all?! Friend, what you need is an annotated meeting!
In an annotated meeting, you take notes—in a specific format—right in front of the attendees via room display and screen-share. By identifying and writing the key information, decisions, and action items in front of your participants, you'll ensure that everyone is on the same page, that everyone agrees to their action items, and that the decisions made won't get lost. In this workshop, you'll learn how to: annotate a meeting in real-time, in front of everyone, get participants to sign off on their action items, use annotation to lead effective meetings, and reduce tangents, why Markdown rules, and what rules to use in your Markdown.
You'll come away with a starter-set of skills to guide meetings with text and a template for developing those skills into a unique style that's just right for your situation. So don't let your meeting time go to waste; learn to lead annotated meetings today!
