Decision documentation
Decisions made in meetings need clear documentation to prevent revisiting settled issues. ChatGPT helps capture not just what was decided, but why. Use prompts like: "Document this decision: We chose option A for the payment flow. Key factors: lower development time, better user testing results. Concerns raised: potential scaling issues."
For complex decisions, provide context: "Create a decision record for our choice to delay feature X. Include: options considered, evaluation criteria, final choice, rationale, risks acknowledged, and success metrics. Format for our team wiki."
ChatGPT also helps connect decisions to the big picture. For example, "Summarize why our choice to use the new database aligns with our goal to improve system performance."
Pro Tip: Always include "decided by" and "date" fields to maintain accountability over time.
