1. Summarise
Summarises the rambling. Bring back the intention using summaries. It helps transition the meeting. Distilling every sentence into CTA. Look for insights, next steps, and what is not relevant. Point out what is not in scope.

2. They ask the question “what do you mean by x?”
Clarify the jargon, instead of wasting the meeting.

3. Be the source of truth
Create the doc that sets up the structure for the project. Be the go-to person.

Great observation on "volunteer to create the doc that summarizes the project"! Curious if you'd suggest a template for this based upon what you've seen best?

What's a 1-min communication framework you use to get your point across?

[Dom-De]

Adore think you mis-emphasized the 'source of truth' item. Having 'control of the document' makes you subordinate, and administrative - but as you say, being the person that collects and shapes the information means you will probably need to expand & clarify tasks - by reaching out to the experts/authorities for that task. The consequent asking questions of others will show your humility, respect for their knowledge and abilities, and if you promote others importance, all the others quickly see YOU as the 'hub' - and as the center point and leader, or at very least at the project expert.

I'm probably being a bit too sensitive, but hoarding documents (and I've seen this too many times...) is the opposite of good leadership, as good leaders educate others, and for everyone to contribute.
