Common Questions About This Board Meeting Checklist
What is this Board Meeting Checklist built with?
The checklist is built entirely in Microsoft Loop, the co-creation app included with Microsoft 365 – structured around the Loop Checklist component with a clean, minimal layout optimized for focus and speed. There is no custom code and there are no third-party tools. It is the kind of clean, collaborative checklist Greg Zelfond builds for executives, assistants, and operations teams.
What’s included in the Board Meeting Checklist?
The checklist centralizes all board preparation tasks in one shared Loop workspace, built on the Loop Checklist component for real-time collaboration. Tasks carry clear ownership so accountability is never in question, and comments on the checklist keep feedback and coordination in context. The layout is deliberately clean and minimal, and the whole checklist is easily reusable as a proven prep framework for every recurring board meeting.
Does this design use any custom code or third-party tools?
No. The checklist is built entirely with Microsoft Loop, which is included with most Microsoft 365 business and enterprise plans – no custom code, no third-party add-ons, and nothing extra to buy. That keeps it stable, secure, and easy to maintain, with everything stored safely inside your Microsoft 365 environment. Out-of-the-box is the only way Greg builds.
Can this checklist be customized for our leadership team?
Absolutely. The sections, tasks, owners, and timing can all be tailored to your board cycle – quarterly board meetings, committee sessions, annual general meetings, or investor updates. Greg adapts the structure to the way your executives and assistants actually prepare, and because the checklist is reusable, you can duplicate it as a template for every meeting on the calendar.
How does the checklist support collaboration before and during board meetings?
Everyone preparing for the meeting works in the same live Loop checklist, so updates appear in real time for executives, assistants, and operations staff alike. Tasks get checked off as materials are finalized, comments capture questions and sign-offs right next to the relevant item, and the checklist supports live updates before, during, and after the meeting – keeping stakeholders aligned without status-update emails.
Can Greg build this checklist for our organization?
Yes – this is exactly the kind of work Greg Zelfond does. As an independent SharePoint and Microsoft 365 consultant and Microsoft MVP, he designs and builds collaborative checklists and trackers like this one in Microsoft Loop, SharePoint, and Lists, tailored to the way your leadership team prepares for meetings.
