If you are using shorthand to take meeting notes, generally avoid trying to take a verbatim transcript. A lot of waffle or verbiage is uttered at most meetings and producing a full transcript of this is a waste of time and effort. Good chairpeople usually sum up towards the end of each item of business, before a consensus decision is made or a vote taken. This is an important moment for the minute-taker as it generally provides the salient points for noting. If in doubt, ask the chairperson before the meeting if there is any item for which a full transcription would prove useful.
