The Impact of Automated Meeting Notes on Project Management

Hello everyone, my name is Peter Taylor, and I am excited to share with You today some key insights on using automated meeting notes for project managers and PMOs. I have been in project management for many years and currently lead a global PMO with around 150 project managers around the world running hundreds of projects on an annual basis. In this article, I will explore the challenges faced by project managers and PMOs, the impact of artificial intelligence on project management, and how Assembly AI can provide a solution for automated meeting notes.

The Challenge of Meetings for Project Managers

Meetings, meetings, and more meetings. It's the reality of life as a project manager. According to research, a typical project manager will spend somewhere between 35% and 50% of their time in meetings. This is a significant investment of time, and it's not just communicating around the project. It's actually spending time in some sort of meeting. The other part of these meetings is that, in some cases, they are unproductive. In fact, 37% of meetings were considered to be unproductive, with no real outcome. This means that more than half of a project manager's time is allocated to meetings of some form.

The challenge for project managers is how to become more efficient in managing meetings. One answer is to control the meetings you're having, reduce the time, and prepare better. The other answer is to save time in the output from the meeting. This is where Assembly AI comes in.

Reporting: The Reality of Life as a Project Manager

Reporting is another significant challenge for project managers. It's the reality of life as a project manager. You're going to do a lot of status reports, risk reports, board executive reports, resource reports, and various other reports. The problem is that everyone wants slightly different reports, and it's quite challenging. Reporting is a full-time activity that consumes a huge amount of time. It's definitely an area where there's got to be a better way of working.

Communication: The Heart of Productivity

Communication is critical in project management. It's about having the right information delivered to the right person in the right way at the right time. If you don't get all four of those elements right, you will probably fail to effectively communicate. The challenge for project managers is how to improve communication and reporting while saving time.

The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Project Management

Artificial intelligence is going to free project managers up and take some of the more tedious work away from them. Assembly AI provides a solution for automated meeting notes. It's a new way of working that allows people to join the meeting when they're going to be active participants but Consume that information at a later date. It's a platform that provides a true automatic meeting summary where that conversation is dissected into the key topics, and the RAID is captured. This information can be easily reviewed, shared, and then used for follow-up.

The Four Keys to Success: Readiness, Adoption, Integrations, and Differentiation

The four keys to success are readiness, adoption, integrations, and differentiation. Readiness is about new ways of working. Adoption is about how to bring this capability effectively into the organization. Integrations are about other sources of truth or other systems that you would want to link with this information. Differentiation is about finding the right solution, the right platform, the right capability for your organization.

Conclusion
