Before You Create an Agenda

Does This Meeting Need to Exist?

Question	If No...
Is there a decision to make?	Send an email with a proposal
Do we need real-time discussion?	Use async (Slack, document comments)
Are the right people available?	Reschedule or get input async
Is 1:1 conversation sufficient?	Don't invite the group

Agenda Building Blocks

Every agenda needs:

Purpose statement - Why are we meeting? (one sentence)
Desired outcome - What will be different after? (decision, alignment, plan)
Timed topics - Each item with owner and minutes allocated
Action items section - Captured during meeting
