Definition: A tool for documenting what matters in a meeting.
Explanation: the key take aways from any meeting are; what actions we agreed to take, and what decisions were made. This tool helps communicate to others, and helps us remember from meeting to meeting. It is also a tool for accountability.
Example: We don’t remember what we decided a few months ago, now we have a record of it. And, when we start a meeting, we review the commitments people made.
How to Use This Tool: Appoint a scribe to document the two areas, review and agree at the end of the meeting on what goes on the register. Review the register at the beginning of the next meeting.
