Why each option

Meeting content was forgotten because no written record was distributed after the call, leaving team members without an authoritative reference for decisions and schedule changes.

ADefine the communications plan.

Defining a communications plan is a planning-phase activity that should have been completed earlier and does not immediately resolve the existing gap in team awareness.

BRecord the missed tasks on the issue log.

Recording missed tasks on an issue log documents failures after they occur but does not prevent team members from forgetting future call contents.

CProvide meeting minutes after each call.Correct

Meeting minutes provide a written, distributable record of all decisions, action items, and schedule changes discussed during a call. Sending minutes after each call gives team members documentation they can review and reference later, directly resolving the awareness gap caused by relying on verbal communication alone.

DComplete a fishbone diagram.

A fishbone diagram is a root cause analysis tool used to identify contributing causes of a defect or problem, not a corrective communications action.
