Digests (also known as executive updates) provide an overview of you and your executive’s shared priorities. Whether a digest simply summarizes upcoming meetings or has detailed sections for questions, updates, and reminders, a well-written digest can have a major impact.
If you’re not regularly sending digests, here are a few reasons to reconsider:
It’s a chance for you to review upcoming meetings, make sure your executive is well prepared, and set reminders for yourself as needed.
It gives your executive a chance to fully review the week ahead, and realize any potential complications or necessary changes ahead of time.
It serves as a status update for your daily work and is a more tangible expression of the many tasks you take on and accomplish.
It encourages you to bundle your updates and questions into one succinct form of communication, rather than scattering them throughout the day.
It’s a great way for you to start or end your day or week – with a thorough review of what’s pending.
Creating daily or weekly email digests is a worthwhile effort – but copying and pasting information from your executive's calendar is tedious and time consuming. That's why Base offers Digest Builder, a tool that allows you to automate the creation of beautiful executive updates in minutes.
