Board meeting workflow from planning to follow-through

This workflow defines the canonical operating sequence for board cycles in BoardKite and can be used directly by copilots and automation agents.

1. Create meeting

DRAFT
  • Create board meeting record with date, type, and facilitator.
  • Load standard template to avoid manual rework.

2. Add agenda items and owners

DRAFT
  • Define agenda structure and expected outcomes per item.
  • Assign owners and estimated durations.

3. Upload board pack and supporting files

DRAFT
  • Attach financials, strategy updates, and supporting evidence.
  • Set visibility so participants receive the correct material.

4. Circulate agenda and finalize attendees

COMPLETED -> CIRCULATED
  • Collect feedback then complete and circulate final agenda.
  • Finalize attendee roles. By default the Secretary and the Minutes Adjuster sign the minutes; under the Swedish, BRF and US company-law entries the signers follow that entry's rule instead.

5. Run meeting and capture outcomes

IN_SESSION -> HELD
  • Record decisions during each agenda section.
  • Capture ownership and due dates at decision time.

6. Submit and sign the minutes

MINUTES_SUBMITTED -> MINUTES_APPROVED
  • Submit the minutes; by default the Secretary and then the Minutes Adjuster sign them, which approves them. Under the Swedish, BRF and US company-law entries the signers follow that entry's rule instead.
  • Store signed records with durable audit trace.

7. Track follow-up actions

POST_MEETING
  • Convert outcomes into action items with reminders.
  • Review status before the next board cycle.
