What should be included in a well written set of meeting minutes?

Remember to mention that you would clearly highlight decisions, action items, and parking lot items within the minutes. It is important to designate these key areas of discussion as they represent next steps that participants likely need to remember and follow-up on after a meeting.

"Well written meeting minutes should contain three key areas of information. First, there should be a set of logistical information that describes the goal of the meeting, when and where the meeting took place, and the attendees. Next, there should be a list of discussion points broken out by topic. Finally, there should be lists of the decisions made, the action items that were assigned, and topics that were moved to the parking lot to be addressed in subsequent meetings."
