Get concise outputs without losing essentials

Learning goal

  • Create a summary template.
  • Summarize a meeting or article with bullets + actions.

Why it matters

  • Summaries must retain decisions, actions, and blockers.
  • Structure avoids fluff.

Explanation

  • Ask for: 5 bullets + 3 action items + 2 risks/questions.
  • Include “Who / What / When” in actions.

Examples

  • Template: “Summarize the transcript in 5 bullets; list 3 actions (who/what/when); list 2 risks.”
  • Weak: “Summarize.”

Guided exercise (10–15 min)

  1. Take a meeting note/article; run the summary template.
  2. Add missing who/when details manually if absent.

Independent exercise (5–10 min)

Refine the template for your team (channels, owners, deadlines).

Self-check

  • 5 bullets present.
  • 3 actions with who/what/when.
  • Risks/questions listed.
