The governance gap
Decisions made quarterly.
Tracked in minutes nobody reads.
Steering committees exist to make critical decisions and hold people accountable. But between meetings, action items vanish into email threads, spreadsheets, and good intentions.
67%
of steering committee action items are never completed or lack clear accountability.
Decisions are made with confidence in the room, then dissolve into ambiguity the moment the meeting ends.

12 weeks of drift
Between quarterly steering committees, workstreams quietly reprioritise, timelines slip, and dependencies shift. By the time the committee reconvenes, the plan has silently changed.
The minutes problem
Minutes take a week to produce, arrive as a 12-page PDF, and are filed without being read. Decisions are technically recorded but practically invisible.
Relitigated decisions
Without clear traceability, the same topics resurface meeting after meeting. Committee time is spent re-debating rather than progressing.
How In Parallel helps
From quarterly minutes to living accountability.
01
Steering committee decision capture
In Parallel joins your steering committee meetings, captures every decision, action owner, and deadline automatically. No more relying on minutes that arrive a week late and nobody reads.
02
Living action tracker
Action items from committee decisions update themselves from follow-up meetings and workstream check-ins. You always know what's progressed, what's stalled, and what's been quietly dropped.
03
Inter-meeting drift detection
Twelve weeks between steering committees is a long time for things to go sideways. In Parallel surfaces when workstream actions diverge from what the committee agreed, before the next meeting.
04
Committee chair reporting
Give your chair a current execution summary in minutes, not days. Decision status, owner accountability, and risk flags, all drawn from real meeting signals, not manually assembled spreadsheets.
Trusted by programme teams
One programme office cut committee prep from two days to 30 minutes.
“We used to spend two days before each steering committee chasing owners for status updates. Now the chair gets a current summary automatically, and the committee spends its time on decisions, not catch-ups.”
