Meetings bring people together to discuss and set next steps. Connect4 helps to turn those agreed next steps into Actions. Learn how to use this tool for your meetings here.
What are Actions?
Actions are tasks assigned to Pod attendees. They can be created and assigned before, during and after meetings in each Pod.
Who can be assigned Actions?
All attendees of the Pod can be assigned actions - even if they weren't in the meeting! This helps keep everyone in the loop regardless of attendance.
How do I use Actions?
There are 2 key ways to create Actions:
During a Meeting
In the Pod (before or after a meeting)

During a meeting, you can create action items and assign to any Pod member by navigating to the Actions tab.

Step 1. Navigate to Pod's Actions Tab
While in the meeting, find the Actions tab in the Pod (see arrow below).

How do I Complete an Action?
Attendees will see the new action on the Actions Tab in the meeting or in the Pod after the meeting. They'll be able to simply check the box next to their assigned Actions.
Note: Don't worry, only the Assignee may check off the box for their Actions!
All completed actions are visible in the Pod's Actions tab.
Hope this article helps turn next steps into actions across your Pods - may you enjoy the simple pleasure of checking the box!
