Summarise a Long Briefing Document in Five Points
There is a thick briefing document on your screen and a meeting in twenty minutes. You will not read it all. This extracts the five points that matter: the headline, the key evidence, the decisions in play, the risks, and what you might get asked. Good for anyone walking into a room underprepared and wanting to fix that fast.
