Meetings.

A recurring, set time

I schedule meetings every week or every two weeks. The main thing is that there's a recurring, set day and time.

What we cover

In each meeting, we talk about:

• What we've done.
• What we're doing next.
• Anything we need to sync up on.

That way, the entire team is fully aligned on what's happening.

After every meeting

After every meeting, these go in the shared doc:

• A meeting summary
• Action items
• What decisions were made
• What's happening next

Anybody who misses the meeting can go straight to the doc, understand exactly what happened, and see what they need to do next, rather than having to come and ask me or the rest of the team what went on.

If someone's missing

If anybody isn't there, I still set out action items for them. Then I ping them myself, so they see their action items are there.
