Session Documentation Skill

Overview

Effective documentation transforms workshop sessions into lasting value. Good documentation captures not just what was said, but what it means and what to do next.

Documentation Principles

1. Capture in Real-Time

Document during the session, not after. Memory fades quickly.

2. Use Participant Language

Record ideas in words participants used. Don't reinterpret.

3. Make It Scannable

Use headers, bullets, tables. Busy people skim.

4. Focus on Actionability

Prioritize decisions and actions over discussion notes.
