The coordination tax
Your CEO made 12 decisions today.
How many will happens?
Chiefs of Staff sit at the centre of every executive conversation. The problem isn't capturing what was said, it's ensuring what was decided gets done.
63%
of executive decisions lack clear ownership or deadlines after the meeting ends.
The Chief of Staff becomes the human tracking system, chasing updates across Slack, email, and hallway conversations.
McKinsey Decision-Making Survey 2024
15+ hours per week
The average Chief of Staff spends on coordination overhead: assembling status updates, chasing action items, reconciling conflicting accounts of what was decided.
Relitigated decisions
The same decision gets made twice because nobody recorded the first resolution. You waste an entire exec session re-debating something you already settled.
Board prep agony
Two days before the board meeting, you're pulling data from five departments, reconciling contradictory status reports, and assembling a deck that's already stale.
How In Parallel helps
From meeting shadow to strategic operator.
01
Automatic decision capture
In Parallel joins your leadership meetings, board prep sessions, and cross-functional syncs, captures every decision, owner, and deadline. You stop being the human note-taker.
02
Living execution plan
Commitments from every meeting feed into a single living plan. When engineering reprioritises in their standup, the impact on the GTM timeline surfaces immediately, not next Monday.
03
Drift detection
Know when a commitment drifts before your CEO asks about it. In Parallel surfaces the gap between what was decided and what's happening, automatically.
04
Board-ready in minutes
Stop spending two days assembling board packs from five different departments. Execution health data is always current because it comes from the meetings where decisions happens.
