“Several times now I’ve misinterpreted what exactly we covered in remote meetings. These have been mostly minor things but they do add up.”

Can you elaborate on what you mean by “minor things”?

Are there ways to make the decisions in these meetings more concrete so that there are fewer misinterpretations? For example, if the misinterpretation was about how a Story should be implemented, perhaps the result of the meeting could be mutually agreed upon acceptance criteria.

Are you the only person who can answer the questions in these meetings? Are you the only person who must travel? A single product manager doesn’t scale very well. :)

I’m taking shots in the dark here, but your problem is one I’ve encountered before.
