Meeting Scheduling

A process for booking meetings that respects focus time, confirms attendees, and arrives with an agenda so the time is not wasted.

When to use

When booking any meeting on behalf of a principal or team.

Trigger
Runs when: A meeting needs to be scheduled

The procedure

6 steps

  1. Confirm the meeting actually needs to happen and could not be an async message.
  2. Find times that protect existing focus blocks and respect time-zone fairness.
  3. Propose two or three options rather than asking an open-ended "when works".
  4. Once confirmed, send the invite with a clear title, the agenda, and any pre-read.
  5. Add the call link, location, and dial-in so no one scrambles at the start.
  6. Send a brief reminder ahead of time for external or high-stakes meetings.
Outputs
  • A booked meeting with an agenda
  • Protected focus blocks
  • A reminder sent for key meetings

Note: Propose specific times, never ask an open-ended "when are you free". The open question is what turns one booking into a five-email thread.
