Meetings are rated as the "#1 office productivity killer”
Did you know $37,000,000,000+ is wasted annually on unproductive meetings in the U.S. alone?

And most employees admit to multitasking unintentionally while attending them.

Here are 4 ways to design meetings that move the needle and others look forward to:

1️⃣ Get feedback from your team
The goal is to make everyone feel part of the solution.
It’s also a great way to figure out hidden issues, how much is getting done, what’s working, and what’s not.

2️⃣ Give your team flexibility
The more you allow people to design a meeting that works for them, the more they’ll buy into the process!
Personally benefiting from the implemented changes also keeps the team excited to show up in future meetings.

3️⃣ Set milestones and monitor progress
Improving the process is a journey, not a destination.
So carry out quarterly reviews and a full audit every year to see if everyone's still feeling good about things.

4️⃣ Debrief as a group regularly
As you tweak how you do meetings, you'll find even better ways to save time and cash.

That's why keeping the communication lines open by asking questions and getting feedback is vital.

Great meetings don't just happen, they're designed. 💛

So it's about time we declutter our calendars.

And make meetings the highlight of the day, not the hurdle!
