Use AI to create a pre-meeting intelligence brief that gives you context on people and topics.
Walking into a meeting blind is stressful. You're meeting a new client, joining a cross-functional project team, or sitting down with stakeholders you've never worked with — and you have no idea what they care about, what questions they'll ask, or what context you're missing. Instead of frantically Googling five minutes before, use AI to build a quick intelligence brief that covers the people, the topics, and the angles you need to understand. Give AI the basic facts: who's attending, what the meeting is about, and what you know so far. Then ask it to generate a brief that includes likely priorities for each person, questions they might ask, common concerns in this type of discussion, and background context you should know. You're not trying to become an expert — you're trying to show up informed, anticipate the conversation, and avoid being caught off-guard. This works for client meetings, job interviews, project kickoffs, budget reviews, or any situation where you're the new person in the room. It turns 10 minutes of prep into the confidence of someone who's done their homework. You'll walk in ready to listen better, ask smarter questions, and contribute from the start instead of playing catch-up.
