I do my best work when I can record meetings, go back through them, capture & summarize key action items for myself, go back through the fine-comb details, and mentally review the meeting the next day. Working in fed consulting, sometimes we aren’t allowed to record with Copilot, and it’s extremely frustrating when that’s the case…

How do you all handle meetings you can’t record, or when they aren’t recorded? Any tips for capturing better notes live? Any other suggestions/recommendations?

Pay attention to the meeting, and have one designated person as the scribe. Circulate the meeting notes afterwards highlighting decisions and action items, ask participants to add any missing items.

This. I think it's really hard to run a meeting and take good notes simultaneously.

Record the meeting off to the side, using your phone. If you are remote, no one can tell.
