Brief me for the meeting

The meeting is in twenty minutes and the context is in a thirty-message thread. You're expected to walk in sounding like you read it all.

What you do

Forward the thread and ask for the picture.

To: [email protected]

Turn this thread into an agenda and talking points. What was decided, what's open, and what do we need to decide today?

The assistant returns a one-page brief: decisions made, questions open, and the next steps with owners.

Why it works

A meeting brief is reading plus synthesis — the kind of work that's simultaneously boring and essential. You keep the judgment about what to say; the assistant handles the homework.
