Quadrant method

Do you ever find that meetings sometimes don’t end with a productive plan of action? Or that, when you look down at your meeting notes, you’re not sure how to make them useful?

That’s where the quadrant note-taking method comes in. The idea behind this template is that every note you add during your meetings goes into one of four categories. Questions top left, general notes top right, personal to-dos bottom left, and assigned tasks for others bottom right. Now that your notes are already organized, you can more easily put those plans into action post meeting.

The quadrant method is rumored to be Bill Gates’ go-to strategy for meeting notes. Surely that makes it worth a try at least?
