Saving time by saving work

The VP has been at the whiteboard for an hour. He’s writing about your department’s new direction. The meeting time is almost up, and he wants you to copy his notes. What do you do?

You glance at your watch. Two more minutes until you lose the room. People are gathering outside. The director stops writing in digital ink. He wants you to copy his notes. You wait for him to put down the pen and walk away from the interactive touch display. Then, you walk up and touch the screen, capturing his notes to a file on the network. You drop by your desk and send out his notes to the whole team, and still have time to pick up a coffee before your next meeting.
