Agenda item in three lines

Intention-Strength Meetings and collaboration

Your point, what you are asking and what you need, plus phrases to bring the discussion back.

"Come prepared" is advice that asks for exactly what is hard: choosing, ordering, prioritising. A template takes that work off your hands. Share it in advance in Teams or by email, so the meeting has focus.

When to use it

A meeting keeps drifting off topic

Tip

Put side topics in a visible car park, with a fixed moment when they come back. Afterwards, ask: which side topic was worth it?

Intention-Strength

The curious seeker of meaning, motivation and congruence

Why do you do what you do, and does it match what you find important? Behind behaviour that looks odd from the outside there is almost always an understandable need. At work it also means: say what you mean. A question from a line manager quickly sounds like an instruction.
