📣 Tired of unproductive meetings?

Use the PEPS model to set the tone, get aligned, and make time count.


🔹 What is PEPS?

PEPS helps you frame any meeting or conversation by aligning 3 key ingredients:


🧭 Purpose – Why are we meeting?

🎯 End Result – What will we leave with?

🧠 Principle – How do we want to work together today?


🔹 Purpose

🔹 Why are we having this meeting?

Example: To align before launch, address open concerns, and secure commitment.


🔹 End Result

🔹 *What outcome do we want by the end?_

Example: A go/no-go decision and clear owner for next steps.


🔹 Principle

🔹 *What mindset or behavior will make this meeting effective?_

Example: Speak up early. Challenge respectfully. No silent disagreement.


🔹 When to Use PEPS

📌 1:1s

📌 Project kick-offs

📌 Strategic check-ins

📌 Any meeting where clarity matters


Say it up front or drop it in your invite — it only takes 30 seconds


🔹 Why It Works

✔️ Sets clear expectations

✔️ Aligns everyone fast

✔️ Prevents misunderstandings

✔️ Builds shared ownership
