Getting pulled into meetings on different projects as functional lead or backup to functional lead. What is the best way to organize, to keep meeting notes, key tidbits, track of latest updates and status? One note or something else? Also, any tips or books to read to help manage such a pace and diversity of projects. Not looking to be a PM. Role is more around managing FTE and contractors across different groups without actually having them reporting to you. TIA

I’ve used OneNote to keep organized on tasks - really good for jotting down notes in meetings quickly. For tracking longer term tasks (esp. with a team) I recommend Notion or Teams for the virtual kanban view

Thank you. Do you type them live? Or write it and then transcribe it. I sometimes feel that typing as someone is speaking may seem I am not paying attention. Maybe it is in my mind. Is Notion a freeware ? I am looking at something where I can take meeting notes, research notes etc.
