Making Meetings Matter

The best way to enhance productivity, increase engagement, and make work fun again, is to change the way all those meetings we spend so much time in are designed, led, and experienced.A droning speaker, a dull PowerPoint presentation and a pot of stale coffee. No matter the size of your company or what industry you’re in, you’re probably familiar with bad meetings.Workers estimate a quarter of all time spent in meetings is wasted - that’s a lot of time spent twiddling thumbs.Unfortunately, too many meetings, whether virtual or in-person, waste your time and ruin your productivity for the day.This has resulted in meetings becoming something we dread, and it’s no secret that most of us would rather be, you know, working.But it doesn’t have to be that way.Key Insights• Mindless Accept Syndrome • The Guest List • The Five Ps • Roles and Responsibilities • Setting an Agenda • Meeting Ground Rules • Action and Follow-Up • Meeting Tool Kit
