This is an example cadence; adapt the duration to the size and risk of the program.
| Time | Topic | Decision to make |
|---|---|---|
| 0-5 min | Data confidence and priority-store coverage | Which missing records or unserved outlets change our interpretation? |
| 5-12 min | Material shelf and campaign exceptions | Which stores need intervention this week? |
| 12-20 min | Overdue actions and repeating root causes | Who owns each decision and by when? |
| 20-25 min | Team capacity and territory changes | What should be reassigned, postponed or removed? |
| 25-30 min | Decisions and commitments | What will be verified before next meeting? |

Rules of a useful meeting
- Prioritize actions that can change a store outcome; do not read dashboards aloud.
- Disclose data coverage and unknowns before interpreting trends.
- A recurring problem may need a supply-chain or retailer action, not another visit.
- Close with a short list of named commitments.
- Start the next meeting by reviewing the last meeting's commitments.
