Send the notes out afterwards and have them validated

Meetings not degrading and wasteful enough? Make your employees also fill out a questionnaire and affidavit of a written summary of their potentially nuanced words to really move that morale needle!
Actually there is one way, which we use frequently at work and is quite effective. One of the participants has a screen shared and types in bullet points on topics and action points. In the final minute we just go over them and then as soon as the meeting ends the person presses send to all participants. Anyone not explicitly objecting shortly afterwards (which they wont because they just saw it being typed live and were asked again) would be tacitly confirming it. No extra hassle, and in fact less hassle.
