Context

In no more than about 100 words (1-5 sentences) each:

  • Why is this important to address in the meeting?

Maybe we should replace "Why is this important to address in the meeting?" with "What's the intended outcome for this session?"

(Why? Because it's more concrete, easier to understand, easier to answer, and tends to confront people more directly with the idea that agenda item should accomplish something. People have repeatedly misunderstood "Why is this important to address in the meeting?" as "Why is this topic important?", but these are crucially different questions.)
