Where they differed most

The task — Notes for the person who missed it

Write the catch-up note for one named person. The meeting covered five items: the hosting migration (done, no action), Q3 headcount (two roles approved, one deferred), the outage post-mortem (actions on the infrastructure team), the rebrand timeline (slipping two weeks, marketing to confirm) and office parking (unresolved, nobody cares). The person who missed it is the marketing lead. Write their catch-up note. It must lead with what they personally now owe, keep what genuinely affects marketing, and cut what does not — a note that repeats all five items in order has failed the task. Use exactly 3 bullet points and no more. Under 120 words.

Hi Sarah,

Here is your catch-up from the meeting:

* **You owe:** Confirmation on the rebrand timeline, which is officially slipping by two weeks.
* **Marketing impact:** For Q3 headcount, two roles were approved, but one was deferred.
* **No action needed:** The hosting migration, outage post-mortem, and office parking were discussed, but none affect marketing.
- Alex, you owe confirmation on the rebrand timeline: it’s currently slipping by two weeks, and the team needs Marketing’s updated dates.
- Q3 headcount: two roles were approved and one was deferred; flag any impact this has on launch/rebrand resourcing.
- No action for you on hosting migration, outage follow-ups, or office parking.
