Meeting Notes Newsletter
Meeting Notes is a weekly letter for people who care about better work — one clear idea at a time.
One clear idea each week for better work.
Cultivated exists to build a modern library for better work.
Meeting Notes is where that work continues in real time — a weekly letter for people who care about the quality of working life.
In a noisy world, clarity is a quiet advantage.
Each week, we publish one considered idea to help you think more clearly about work — and make it better.
What Meeting Notes Is
Meeting Notes is a weekly note from the Cultivated publishing desk.
It explores how work actually works — beneath the slogans and noise — focusing on the human and systemic forces that shape everyday working life.
Each issue offers one practical idea drawn from our core territory:
- clarity and shared understanding
- communication and explanation
- creativity and problem-solving
- learning through real work
- the space between idea and value
Not news.
Not hype.
Not hot takes.
Just clear thinking, published slowly.
The Philosophy Behind It
Every issue is guided by a simple belief:
Clarity creates alignment.
Alignment creates momentum.
Momentum creates value.
Meeting Notes looks at how ideas really move inside organisations — where they gain strength, where they stall, and how better thinking improves everyday work.
Small ideas, applied thoughtfully, compound over time.

Step Inside the Studio
Alongside the public notes, we also host a quieter space for readers who want to go further.
Studio Access is for people who wish to slow down and practise the ideas more thoughtfully — through small group conversations, reflections, and shared learning.
It supports the continued publication of the free work each week.
Studio Access includes:
- Quarterly online studio sessions — thoughtful conversations about real work
- Early access to new lessons and ideas
- Exclusive reflections on clarity, creativity, and value flow
- A direct line into the studio when you want help thinking something through
Meeting Notes is published for people who believe clearer thinking leads to better work — and better work leads to better lives.
One clear idea each week.
