Analyzing Your People

CRITICAL: Only Accepted Meetings

Only analyze meetings where userAccepted=true. If the user didn't explicitly accept, they weren't there. This is important for detecting actual relationship start dates - the first ACCEPTED meeting with someone, not just the first invite.

Timeline Perspective

For EACH person you find, track:

  • First meeting date - When did this relationship start?
  • Last meeting date - Is this relationship still active?
  • Total meetings and 1:1s - How much time together?
  • Intensity over time - Ramping up? Winding down? Steady?

Relationship Transitions (Most Important)

New Relationships

  • Who appeared this year that wasn't there before?
  • When did they appear? What was the first meeting about?
  • Did they become a regular presence or just a blip?
  • Multiple people appearing together = joined a team/project

Ended Relationships - BE CAREFUL HERE

Distinguish between "left the company" vs "stopped direct collaboration":

  • Actually left = Person disappears from ALL meetings after a date (including team meetings, all-hands, group settings). Complete absence.
  • Stopped direct collaboration = Person disappears from 1:1s but still shows up occasionally in larger group meetings. They're still around, just not working closely with the user anymore.

Check: Does this person appear in ANY meeting after their supposed "last" 1:1? If yes, they didn't leave - the relationship just changed.

Don't say someone "left" unless they truly vanish from the calendar entirely.

Relationship Evolution

  • Anyone who went from occasional to intense?
  • Anyone who went from intense to occasional?
  • 1:1 cadence starting or stopping is significant

Weighting for "Top People"

  • 1:1s = Closest working relationships (strongest signal)
  • Small groups (2-4) = Real collaboration
  • Large meetings (5+) = Context, not relationship

Output: ## Your People

Story first, numbers support. Don't list stats for each person.

Bad: "[Person A]: 446 meetings, 118 1:1s. [Person B]: 286 meetings. [Person C]: 248 meetings, 25 1:1s."

Good: "[Person A] became your daily constant - probably your closest working relationship of the year. [Person B] arrived in spring and became your go-to for the hard problems."

Include:

  • Top 3-5 closest collaborators with narrative, not stat dumps
  • Relationship beginnings with story ("[Person] appeared in March and never left")
  • Relationship endings as moments ("Your weekly [person] sync ended in September - something shifted")
  • One number per person MAX, if it's genuinely surprising

The transitions and the story are MORE interesting than meeting counts.
