### Schedule travel for the CEO
Preferences for flights, in descending order of importance are:
- Direct flight whenever possible (as long as the cost of the direct flight is ≤2x the cost of a reasonable non-direct flight)
- Select a non-middle seat, whenever possible
- Don't upgrade seats (unless there's a cheap upgrade that gets a non-middle seat, or if a flight is longer than 5 hours. Even then, never buy a seat upgrade that costs >$100.)
- The CEO does not like to be called "Michael". Unfortunately, this is necessary when booking flights. (He has missed flights before by not doing this.)
- Default to carry-on only, no checked bags. (For trips longer than 5 nights, add 1 checked bag.)
- Use the Brex card.
- Frequent flyer details of all (previously flown) airlines are in 1Password as well as important travel documents.

### Process the CEO's calendar
Time management for the CEO is essential at all times.
The AttC will process the CEO's calendar by checking for and correcting any double-booking (e.g. two meetings scheduled for overlapping times that the CEO needs to attend) or new meetings added.

1. LinkedIn profile link of all outside participants
2. Company profile link
3. Context that helps the CEO to understand the purpose of meeting at a glance
4. Share the document with meeting participants
2. Screen-shot of LinkedIn profile pic
3. Company name (in doc title and file name)

5. Context that helps the CEO to understand the purpose of the meeting at a glance from:
- CEO's email
- LinkedIn messages (careful not to mark things as read!)
- Google Drive
Be sure to do this from Mike's browser so as to not lock him out of any meeting docs.

### 💻 Sid : Mike
Every two weeks, our CEO Mike has a 1:1 meeting with Sid Sijbrandij. The CEO uses dedicated (blocked, recurring) time to prepare for this meeting earlier in the week.
After each meeting, the CEO's apprentice makes a copy of the original document and moves it into a particular folder in the "Fleet" shared drive, with a particular naming convention:
<img width="364" alt="image" src="https://github.com/fleetdm/fleet/assets/618009/2781ec0c-4f8b-49ca-9586-87ebdc2c71dc">
### Post-e-group archival
### Investor and advisor updates
We like to regularly share updates about how Fleet is growing with our investors and advisors.
- CEO (TODO: who?) tracks the most recent updates with investors and advisors and coordinates emails, zoom calls, or the investor or advisor's preferred method of communication with @mikermcneil and preps materials as needed.
### Document preparation
At Fleet, document prep steps are determined by the type of meeting.
| Meeting type | Description | Automation enabled? | Meeting note preference |
| ------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------| ------------------ | ------------- |
| "One-off" | A non-recurring meeting that has a separate doc per meeting. | Most likely Zapier | Note template |
| External call | A recurring meeting that is with a customer, coach, or advisor. | No, unless rescheduled using Calendly link | Journal template |
| 1:1 | A recurring meeting that direct managers and direct reports use for performance management and is emptied after every call. | Most likely Reclaim | Agenda template |
| Office hours | A recurring meeting that is emptied after call used for group meetings of Fleet team members. | Google calendar | Office hour agenda template |
| Journal | Title = {date(XXXX-XX-XX) (Attendee) <>( Mike McNeil)}
with H2 (XXXX-XX-XX) = to reference meeting dates
Does not get cleaned out every time post meeting
google doc
Immediately after every e-group the AttC duplicates the e-group agenda doc as a backup copy saved to ["Classified" shared drive](https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1IsSGMgbt4pDcP8gSnLj8Z8NGY7_6UTt6). Rename it to "YYYY-MM-DD backup of e-group agenda". Then clear out all agenda items from the e-group doc (the ones that people add, not the standard fixtures), and replace them with a single item: `Sam: FYI: Agenda from last time (YYYY-MM-DD):` [LINK](link)
### Private whiteboard
### Unroll a Slack thread
From time to time the CEO will ask the Apprentice to the CEO to unroll a Slack thread into a well-named whiteboard google doc for safekeeping and future searching.
1. Start with a new doc.
2. Name the file with "yyyy-mm-dd - topic" (something empathetic and easy to find).

2. Download video from Gong, then delete it from Gong (promptly) and instead upload mp4 to appropriate ¶¶ folder in google drive.
3. Move generated transcript doc in google drive (promptly) instead into appropriate ¶¶ folder in google drive.

### Why not mention the CEO in Slack threads?
Everyone else who works at Fleet is expected to read and reply (or acknowledge with an emoji reaction) every time they're mentioned in Slack, even deep inside long threads.
So why not the CEO?
[Too often](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vK-Dy2BVrw7doYUzabOPyCiN4RfolWFgOKMm23l91s0/edit) the CEO gets mentioned.
From Mike:
<blockquote purpose="quote">Staying on top of your Slack mentions (including in threads!) is very important. Please use them.
But now that the company has grown, in my role as CEO, I get mentioned in Slack very often. [Too often](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vK-Dy2BVrw7doYUzabOPyCiN4RfolWFgOKMm23l91s0/edit).
<blockquote purpose="large-quote">Staying on top of your Slack mentions (including in threads!) is very important. Please use them.
But now that the company has grown, in my role as CEO, I get mentioned in Slack very often.
I held on as long as I could. But due to volume, in late 2022, I made the decision to no longer read Slack threads where I am mentioned.
What do I still read?
- If you mention me in a top-level channel message, I'll see and read it in 1 business day.
