action points

Turn-based resource allocation

Action points are specific tasks or next steps assigned during a meeting or discussion, intended to be completed afterward.

The phrase belongs to business and project management jargon: Let's review the action points from last week's meeting.

Each action point typically has an owner responsible for completion.

The term emphasizes accountability—vague discussion becomes concrete obligation.
