Group Spreadsheet

The Group Vote Spreadsheet streamlines meeting coordination for executives by letting their EAs vote on proposed meeting times and add context in a live, collaborative document.

This feature works best when coordinating with other EAs to schedule meetings between multiple busy executives. The tool eliminates lengthy email chains by providing quick, transparent, real-time updates.
