Meeting Follow-Up Record
A follow-up record that captures each action, its owner, its due date, and the acceptance.

Why this control matters
Meeting Follow-Up Record is a record, not a reminder to be careful. It shows what the team checked, who owned the next step, and what remained open before the client acted. The control matters because the meeting ends with a list of actions that no one owns.
Open the governing record
Start with the action log. Record the source, the version or date observed, the owner, and the field the evidence supports. Save the original rather than retyping it into a summary. The assistant prepares and checks the record; the account owner keeps the decision that changes a client commitment, a payment, a schedule, or access.
Where the handoff breaks
The predictable failure is this: the meeting ends with a list of actions that no one owns. It becomes expensive when the next owner cannot tell whether the item is a request, an approval, or a correction. Use one status set: ready, exception, approved, and closed. A status without an owner and a date is only a label.
A worked outsourced example
A client meeting produces five actions. The log assigns each one and reads the list back before the meeting ends. The point is not the specific number. It is that the record shows the original state, the change, the reviewer, and the confirmation in one place. Review the example with the person who owns meeting follow-up. If they cannot explain the close condition from the record alone, the control is not finished.
Weekly review and stop rule
Sample one ordinary item, one exception, and one recently corrected item. Track completeness and the age of what remains open. Count errors by rule rather than by person. When the same gap appears twice, fix the form, the routing rule, or the source map before coaching the same operator again.
