Can you believe we spend between 2 and 5 hours a day in meetings! The vast majority of us think that most of the time spent in meetings is a waste of time! In fact 70% of us believe our job satisfaction would improve if we attended fewer meetings. Whilst 65% of us agree that frequent meetings impact our productivity.
Meetings are a reflection of our broader organisational culture, so these facts and figures don't read to me like part of a thriving culture. Which is why I am on a mission to help you break free of this time and energy sapping culture we have created. Over the course of the next three episodes I am going to help you go from awareness to action and embark on a new way of doing meetings. Meetings that are efficient, effective and equity driven. Meetings that take up less of your time and yet enable you achieve more.
We're going to start by reflecting on what your current meeting culture is like. So we can highlight the great bits we want to keep and work on the bits that are slowing us down and leaving us feeling overworked and undervalued.
To help I have created a FREE resource to help you reflect on the next four meetings you attend. You can access the FREE REFLECTION WORKBOOK here and start breaking free of the meeting madness culture today.
