[22E3] <Circle> Outlook meeting notes

For every outlook session, make a copy of this template and as the secretary to fill it in throughout the session. Do not also write down the outcomes (those go onto the one page strategic plan) but also the considerations that led to a decision, other ideas that didn’t make it (they might be great inspiration for the next session). It will help with answering the question “Why did we decide that?” in three months.

Objectives of this meeting

The Circle Lead is responsible for the circle having a strategy. In an Outlook session, circle members can give input. Depending on the need, in an Outlook session we review:

  • What is happing around us (e.g. supercircle outlook)
  • Why we exist, where we want to go and if our goals/metrics and key thrusts are still in line with that
  • What we’ll do next “episode”
Mindset

01

Trust good intention all the time

02

Sometimes it is worth it to build on

fledgling ideas and allow them to grow

without challenging them too

prematurely. Respect ideas, issues,

questions.

03

It's okay if you don’t have an answer to

questions right away. Questions can be

deposed for the meantime in the

questions to be answered canvas.

Check-in Round

Check-in

The results of this session are now written down. Now it’s important it’s being used. That’s why the following actions are advised:

  1. The Rep Link takes a new purpose back to the parent circle.
  2. CL to create Strategic Canvas / OPSP (base template here)
  3. The Secretary puts the Outlook Pages and/or strategic canvas in the right folder in Notion / Glassfrog.
  4. The Lead Link makes sure that all plans and KPI’s are visible on dashboards, for use in tactical.
  5. Alignment: If your circle has a subcircle, share the outcomes with the subcircle's Circle Leads so they can use it for their Outlook.
