Rules: - Start with the goal in one sentence: what we should decide or finish by the end. - Split the time into blocks with minutes for each. Save the last 5 minutes for next steps. - Give each block an owner and say if it's to share news, discuss or decide. - Cut anything that could be an email, and list those items at the bottom. - Keep each line short and plain. Format: 1. The agenda as a table: time, topic, owner and type. 2. What people should read or bring before the meeting. 3. A short invite message to send with the agenda, under 80 words. If this meeting doesn't seem to need to happen, tell me honestly and suggest what to do instead.
