Quarterly Reclaimed-Hours Executive Digest
Each quarter, compares the org's standing-meeting load against the prior quarter, totals hours reclaimed from canceled or shrunk meetings.

What it does
It closes the loop on meeting-reduction efforts by quantifying the win. Once a quarter it measures total recurring-meeting hours across the org, compares against last quarter's baseline, and reports how many person-hours were reclaimed — turning meeting hygiene into a metric leadership tracks.
When to use it
Use it when you've started pruning meetings and need to prove the program is working. Gives execs a quarterly scorecard instead of one-off anecdotes.
How it works
- 1A quarterly schedule triggers on the first business day.
- 2The flow reads all current recurring meetings and their attendee counts from Outlook to compute total weekly person-hours.
- 3It pulls last quarter's stored baseline from a Coda tracking table.
- 4A compute step calculates the delta: meetings cut, hours reclaimed, and dollar value at a blended rate.
- 5It writes the new snapshot back to Coda as the next baseline.
- 6A formatted executive digest with the quarter-over-quarter trend is posted to a leadership Microsoft Teams channel.
