Slide decks for project managers

The note, ready to present.

A note about a workstream becomes the deck: a title, a section for each turn, bullets short enough to say out loud, a closing slide of takeaways. For project managers it is the presentation a project file was always going to have to become.
Six templates, from minimal to corporate to dark
Pick the tone: teaching, pitch, briefing or casual
Drag any part of a slide, or type straight into it
Present full screen, or export the deck as a PDF

Written in the order you would say it

A title, sections where the note changes subject, and a closing slide of takeaways.

Edit on the slide, not in a form

Double click a line to rewrite it, drag a part to move it, hide what does not belong.

Pictures where they help

Grape draws a picture for the slides that suit one and leaves a quote alone.
Deliverables

Three things that stop falling through the gap

Not a feature list. What changes when the meeting, the actions and the risks live in one place.
The actions get written up an hour after the meeting, from memory.

Actions written while people are still talking

Record the meeting and ask for the decisions and owners as soon as it ends.
The status update means reopening every note from the week.

Status updates from your own notes

Ask what moved this week across a project folder and get a summary you can send.
The decision is in the notes, the task in the tracker, the file in email.

Nothing falls through the gap between tools

Checklists, notes, attachments and transcripts all live in the same note.
A sprint

What that looks like for project managers

Three points in a cycle where the app closes a gap.
01

Weekly meeting

Record it, get the transcript, ask for the action list and tick items off in the note.
02

Risk review

Keep a note per risk, linked to the meetings where it moved.
03

Reporting

Ask for a status summary built from this week and export it.
Questions

Questions Before You Install It

The rest of them live in the help center.

Do not also transcribe it.

Record the standup, get the actions out of the transcript, and keep every risk, decision and follow up in a library you can search by meaning.
