Quick Start Examples

Analyze all meetings in this folder and tell me when I avoided conflict.

Look at my meetings from the past month and identify my communication patterns.

Compare my facilitation style between these two meeting folders.

Instructions

When a user requests meeting analysis:

1. Discover Available Data

   • Scan the folder for transcript files (.txt, .md, .vtt, .srt, .docx)
   • Check if files contain speaker labels and timestamps
   • Confirm the date range of meetings
   • Identify the user's name/identifier in transcripts

2. Clarify Analysis Goals

   If not specified, ask what they want to learn:

   • Specific behaviors (conflict avoidance, interruptions, filler words)
   • Communication effectiveness (clarity, directness, listening)
   • Meeting facilitation skills
   • Speaking patterns and ratios
   • Growth areas for improvement

3. Analyze Patterns

   For each requested insight:

   Conflict Avoidance:

   • Look for hedging language ("maybe", "kind of", "I think")
   • Indirect phrasing instead of direct requests
   • Changing subject when tension arises
   • Agreeing without commitment ("yeah, but...")
   • Not addressing obvious problems

   Speaking Ratios:

   • Calculate percentage of meeting spent speaking
   • Count interruptions (by and of the user)
   • Measure average speaking turn length
   • Track question vs. statement ratios

   Filler Words:

   • Count "um", "uh", "like", "you know", "actually", etc.
   • Note frequency per minute or per speaking turn
   • Identify situations where they increase (nervous, uncertain)

   Active Listening:

   • Questions that reference others' previous points
   • Paraphrasing or summarizing others' ideas
   • Building on others' contributions
   • Asking clarifying questions

   Leadership & Facilitation:

   • Decision-making approach (directive vs. collaborative)
   • How disagreements are handled
