Three ways how to transform your meeting recordings into corporate meeting notes.

Being the assigned note-taker for a meeting can sometimes be stressful and involve a hectic effort to get things in order. Crafting a document, noting attendance, and recording notes and action items are immediate tasks that eventually require organizing and sharing this information with fellow colleagues—preferably in a manner that allows easy retrieval whenever necessary. In this guide, you will learn three easy and professional ways to make your note-taking task less stressful and more corporate.

Step 1:

Start by recording your Zoom call. Once your meeting has begun, click on the three dots that appear on the toolbar and select "Record on this Computer". Both audio and video will be recorded.

Once the meeting is finalized, an mp4 recording will be saved in your documents.
