Picture this: You wake up on a Monday morning, glance at your calendar, and your anxiety level inches up a bit. Your day is filled with back-to-back meetings, each one seemingly more crucial than the last. But instead of feeling overwhelmed, you take a deep breath and remind yourself, “I’ve got this.” How, you ask? It's all thanks to a brilliant feature in Meeting Insights called "Prep My Meeting."
Let me walk you through how this game-changing tool can transform your chaotic meeting schedule into a manageable, even enjoyable, daily routine.
Meetings today are no longer meticulously scheduled with gaps for preparation and reflection. These days, workplaces are a marathon of consecutive meetings, requiring instant context switching and rapid assimilation of unfamiliar information. If you want to thrive in such an environment, you need tools that foster productivity and sanity. Enter Prep My Meeting – the handy coach for your digital meeting needs.
Just like the name implies, Prep My Meeting is a feature designed to give you context and insights before you step into a recurring meeting. It's like having a personal assistant who whispers key points and action items from previous meetings just prior to joining the next one. Here’s how it can enhance your professional life:
Immediate Access to Curated Highlights
Based on Meeting Insights recording of every meeting and generating summaries, Prep My Meeting delivers a brief, concise overview, including decisions made and pending action items. This capability ensures you're always in the loop, regardless of how many meetings you've had. Furthermore, Prep My Meeting leverages Meeting Insights' ability to curate critical points from previous sessions, saving you from the drudgery of reviewing extensive transcriptions or notes. This way, you can focus on impactful decision-making rather than administrative trivia.
Prep My Meeting sends a neatly packaged email to the meeting and action item owners with everything they need, including a summary at a glance, action items, and a proposed agenda for the next meeting. This preemptive approach ensures everyone knows what's expected and what to prepare for. Not only is the prep content emailed, but it is also displayed inside the Meeting Insights interface. Whether you’re reviewing it ahead of time or making last-minute preparations, the information is always accessible. The prep content is also presented within Teams during the meeting, ensuring that all participants have the necessary context at their fingertips. This enhances real-time discussions and ensures no one is left out of the loop.
