🧑🏻‍💼 Let's get one thing clear: taking notes for work is not - and should not be - the same as taking notes for personal or academic use. In this note-taking tutorial for professionals, I draw from my experiences as Product Marketer and as a former Management Consultant and share exactly how to take notes for work.
Not only do I share the note-taking technique I developed specifically for work over the past 7 years, I also provide you with templates so you can implement these professional note-taking concepts immediately. Whether you manage projects as a product marketer or management consultant, you are under a lot of time pressure to take accurate notes.
You will still benefit from this video even if you are a student looking for note-taking techniques on how to study in college because while other KZfaq videos teach you how to take pretty notes, the note-taking method in this video is action-oriented, it pushes you to get work done.
Let's dive in ✍️

I love these templates. My trick to meeting note success is email! Every meeting has a calendar invite, I forward the invite to myself, update the email body with my meeting note template that I saved as a signature (Outlook trick), and then store my notes in my email until I can process them into my other systems (to do list, documentation, etc). By forwarding the calendar invite, I have a list of all the attendees and meeting details (date, time, agenda) without needing to retype the information.

I started using OneNote earlier this year to manage my notes. For each new meeting I would open up a new section, Import meeting details under the Home tab and select the meeting I’m taking notes on. It will fill in the details and you can add notes from there. This was a game changer for me because it captures all of the meeting invite content, attendees invited and time of meeting. I just add my notes and who actually attended and that’s it. :-)

I use onenote for note taking. I love the meeting details function it has. When you press that and select the right meeting, everything is imported from Outlook. Such as attendees, topic, notes sent with the invitation. Makes it all so much easier. And no need for followup emails with takeaways because a chat is automatically created in Teams where you can put those takeaways in a Loop component. But besides the technological solutions, loving your tips on how to increase the quality of note taking. I was (and still am) really struggling with this. I'll be using your tips for sure.

The information shared for note taking was done very well. For action items I like to put action-open (name) - (then action). When the action is complete I update that line to action-done. This lets me do a key word search for "action-open". I can then see complete list of open action items, who is assigned and on what meeting date was the action item opened.

A little late to the party but I wanted to command you for all your helpful videos! I have two suggestions regarding the templates in Sheets or Excel: 1) just create a placeholder with the right format and no entries, so that you do not have to remove the entries every time you want to prepare for a new meeting. 2) (Meeting with the team) format all the empty rows with the same format as one of the entry rows, so that you do not need to copy the content and remove or copy the format every time. You said in some other videos something along the lines "if you have to do something 3 times, automate it/create a template for it"

Super super helpful thank you, I did find some note taking apps like notion to be excessive and overkill sometimes.

So much good ideas here, and in your other videos as well. After seeing this I instantly copied the notes part from «meeting notes for self» into Notion - and finally I have a way of taking structured notes from meetings! Thanks man

Hi Jeff, I like the way you organise your notes for meeting. Especially the first notes for ownself, i personally had a similar template but using writing. As for the templates for meeting with a single team or multiple teams, I find it hard to type fast enough due to the nature of working in MS excel/Goggle sheets rather than just scribbing everything in MS word/Goggle Docs.

I'm sorry but the speed with which we're now jumping from meeting to meeting there's never enough time to create such a neatly created doc. I'll share my technique to anyone who's intrested: I'm using Google Workspace, so my note taking happens in Keep. 1. Open Google Keep 2. Create a new note and in the title write the name of your calendar meeting's name, date, and name of attendees (full name if its someone you don't know and just the first name for someone you work a lot with). 3. Pin the new note so in case you have to look up something in your notes it wont jump to the bottom and will stay on top. 4. Use upper part for notes - use short key sentences to note key element. Use lower part for actions and next steps. 5. Set a reminder if you need to come back to your note. (If setup correctly this reminder will show up in your Google Calendar.

Great Ideas and well presented. Suggestion/Tip: Create a tab or page for an empty meeting template. Copy THAT instead of the last notes and you wont have to delete those last updates.
