DAILY MEETING PREPARATION · Workflow idea

Start the day with a useful view of the meetings ahead.

Prepare a short daily brief from calendar events the recipient is authorized to review. Highlight meeting times and useful context, then share it only with the intended person or approved group. Keep sensitive discussions private and have a participant verify important details before the brief is forwarded or relied on.

Keep in mind

Calendar entries can reveal private or sensitive information, and a summary may omit context or misstate an event. Limit the brief to authorized calendars and recipients, avoid unnecessary meeting details, and have a participant verify important information before forwarding it or using it to make a commitment.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Choose calendars and recipients

Identify whose events may be included and who is permitted to receive the daily brief.

Set the timing and summary format

Choose when the brief is prepared and which event details make it useful without exposing unnecessary information.

Set privacy and review expectations

Decide how confidential events are handled, where briefs are kept, and who verifies changes or sensitive details.

Test busy, empty, and private calendars

Check a full day, a day with no events, and a restricted event; confirm the result is accurate and reaches only approved recipients.
