How to follow up after a meeting
PURPOSE
Follow-up turns meeting discussion into action.
SEND A SUMMARY
Share decisions, action items, owners, due dates, unresolved questions, and links to materials.
TIMING
Send follow-up soon after the meeting while details are fresh.
ACTION ITEMS
Make sure every task has one owner and a due date.
BEST PRACTICE
Use the same thread or shared location so follow-up does not scatter across inboxes like confetti with deadlines.
