Project Action Log Template – Excel Losing track of actions, owners, and follow-ups across meetings and workstreams?

Without a structured action log, critical follow-ups slip through the cracks. Actions discussed in meetings are forgotten, ownership becomes unclear, and stakeholders repeatedly ask for status updates. Over time, this creates frustration, erodes accountability, and increases the risk of delays and rework.
 
The Project Action Log Template provides a simple, professional way to capture, track, and manage all project actions in one place. Each action is clearly recorded with dates, descriptions, owners, and status, ensuring nothing is missed and responsibilities are transparent. This reduces ambiguity, improves execution, and keeps momentum moving forward.
 
Designed for Excel and Google Sheets, this template helps you standardize how actions are logged and reviewed across your projects. The result is clearer communication, stronger governance, and greater confidence that agreed actions are being delivered on time.
