Taking meeting minutes is the practice of recording the key discussion points, decisions, and action items during a meeting for future reference and accountability. It requires active listening, concise summarization, and clear organization so absent stakeholders can quickly understand what was decided. This skill is commonly expected of administrative assistants, project coordinators, and team members designated as note-takers in professional settings.
