Meeting Minutes Sheet
Take minutes that stay useful, by giving most of the page to the two things anyone actually reads them for later: what was decided and who agreed to do what.
OC-01 2 pages
Category
Office and committee
The paperwork a committee, a small office or a one-person project runs on — minutes, agendas, actions, decisions, risks and issues.
Most of these exist somewhere in a shared drive as a document nobody can find and half the group cannot open. On paper they get filled in, and a page that was filled in beats a template that was not. Nothing here claims to satisfy a standard or a regulator; they are pro-formas, and the rules about what a body must record and how long it must keep it differ by country.
Sheets in Office and committee
Meeting Agenda Sheet
Circulate an agenda that keeps a meeting to time, by putting a named lead and a number of minutes against every item before anyone sits down.
OC-02 1 page
Action Log
Keep every agreed action in one place with a name and a date against it, so the next meeting starts from what happened rather than from memory.
OC-03 1 page
Decision Log
Record why a decision was taken and what else was on the table, which is the question people actually ask months later.
OC-04 1 page
Risk Register
Hold the risks a group has identified in one place, with the controls that already exist recorded alongside them rather than assumed.
OC-05 1 page
Issue Log
Track the things that have already happened separately from the things that might, so today's problems do not crowd out next month's risks.
OC-06 1 page
Project Plan Sheet
Plan a project small enough to hold in your head — a refit, an event, a move, a small build — on one page, including the dependencies people forget.
OC-07 1 page
Status Report Sheet
Report a period honestly on one page, with real space for the two sections people skip: what slipped, and what you need from somebody else.
OC-08 2 pages
Room and Facility Booking Sheet
Keep every booking for a shared space in one visible place, which is the only reliable cure for double bookings.
OC-09 1 page
Document and Version Control Sheet
Keep a document's history with the document, so the copy in somebody's drawer says which version it is and who approved it.
OC-10 1 page
Lessons Learned Sheet
Capture what to do differently while it is still fresh and specific enough to act on, instead of a vague note that helps nobody.
OC-11 1 page
Handover Notes Sheet
Hand a shift, a job or a role over properly, on the assumption that the person taking it does not yet know what they do not know.
OC-12 1 page
Volunteer Hours Record
Record volunteering as it happens, with a signature against each line, so the hours can be proved months later to somebody who was not there.
OC-13 1 page

One new sheet, most weeks
We are building this library out steadily. Leave an address and we will send the new sheets as they are finished — nothing else, and no more than one email a week.
Sign-up is not live yet — we have not connected an email provider, so this form is switched off rather than quietly collecting addresses.
