Prompts for meeting facilitation

Here are the topics we need to cover: [list]. Turn this into an agenda where each item states the decision that must be made by the end of it, in order of priority, with a rough time allocation for a [duration]-minute meeting.

Here's our agenda: [paste agenda]. For the two most contentious items, tell me the likely points of disagreement between [stakeholder groups, e.g. design and finance] and one way to frame each item to reduce defensiveness.

Here are my raw notes from today's meeting: [paste notes/transcript]. Extract: decisions made (clearly stated), action items with an owner if mentioned, open questions still unresolved, and anything that was discussed but explicitly NOT decided.

Based on these structured meeting outcomes: [paste decisions/actions], write a follow-up email to attendees summarising decisions, listing actions with owner and deadline, and flagging the one open question that needs an answer by [date].

Write a 3-sentence opening for a meeting about [topic] that states why we're here, what decision we need by the end, and what's out of scope for today.

Two people in a meeting disagree on [describe the disagreement in one line each side]. Suggest a way to frame a question that would surface the actual underlying concern on each side rather than repeating positions.

Here's what we've discussed in the last [number] instances of our recurring [meeting name]: [paste brief summary of each]. Tell me if this meeting still needs to happen weekly, and what could move to async updates instead.

Summarise this document into a 5-minute pre-read for meeting attendees: [paste document]. Highlight the one decision the meeting needs to make in relation to it, and 2 questions attendees should come ready to answer.

Build a structure for a [duration]-minute retrospective on [project/period]. Include sections for what worked, what didn't, one thing to change next time, and a way to end with concrete next steps rather than just reflection.

Here's a loose summary of what was discussed with no clear conclusion: [paste]. Propose 3 possible concrete next steps that would move this forward, so the group can pick one rather than leaving it open.
