The document discusses a tool called the "to-do form" which is used for systematically recording action plans and tasks from meetings. The to-do form focuses on future actions and responsibilities rather than just describing past discussions. It is completed during meetings so tasks can be assigned and documented for all participants. After meetings, participants use their copy of the to-do form to track task completion until all items are closed. This process increases transparency, accountability, and the likelihood that meeting outcomes are implemented. The tool can also be adapted for other planning purposes beyond meeting minutes.
