Listen actively to the discussion. You don’t want to merely parrot or repeat another participant’s contribution. Make some notes.

So, the very best advice I can give you around how to write good minutes is to read other people’s minutes and start to work out what’s good, what isn’t; what fits your style, and what doesn’t. So, start reading! It’s also good for familiarising yourself with who will be there.
