Stop Wasting Your Time In Boring Meetings!
68 Ways To Make Them Shorter And More Productive
Nearly 75% of executives in a recent study said the majority of the meetings they attend are a waste of time.
Why?
For starters, how many of the following have you encountered during a meeting:
- Information given beforehand was confusing and needed clarification
- Key people needed were not present
- Participants didn’t arrive prepared – or on time
- Discussion was dominated by a few “alpha” participants
- Discussions wander off topic
- Personality conflicts overshadowed the meeting
- Agenda wasn’t followed – or no agenda at all
- Final outcome wasn’t reached and/or next steps were never discussed
- Meeting could have been summed up with a simple, well-written email
The list goes on.
These meetings don’t just waste time for the hour or two you’re attending …
… It interrupts the flow of your entire workday.
But here’s the good news: Holding (and attending) meetings that leave you feeling energized, enthusiastic and successful – instead of frustrated and aggravated – is 100% attainable.
It all starts here inside our newest Essential Insights:
