bullet-point

Agenda item symbol

A bullet-point is an item in a list, marked with a dot, dash, or other symbol to set it apart visually.

The term works as both noun and verb: She added three bullet-points to the slide; Let's bullet-point the key takeaways.

Bullet-points dominate business presentations and corporate communication, often criticized for oversimplifying complex ideas into fragmented phrases.
