Prepare the context.
Make room to listen.

How Nine gets there.

Keep your commitments distinct from Sarah’s next steps.

Check what changed.

Read the relevant Slack updates since the last meeting. Connect recent progress and remaining blockers to the topics in your notes.

Flag an unconfirmed follow-up instead of treating it as complete.

Bring a short brief.

Return the follow-ups, progress, and suggested questions in your private Slack conversation, with references to the notes and updates.

Keep the brief focused on this meeting and easy to refine.

The result starts

Where the work lands

Private preparation · Slack

A short brief comes back privately in Slack, with previous commitments, recent progress, suggested questions, and source references.

Access needed

Read access to the relevant Google Calendar event, the Google Docs notes you provide, and the agreed Slack team channels, plus a private conversation for delivery. Confirm the connections and available actions during onboarding.

Your team’s part

Use the brief as a starting point. You and Sarah choose what to discuss and agree the next steps together.

The brief stays in your private conversation. Your meeting notes and calendar remain unchanged, and nothing is sent to Sarah or the team.
