Pointless Meetings

Marissa Brassfield -

This ecard by someecards illustrates a cruel fact: pointless meetings are ubiquitous. If you're tempted to call a meeting, consider the following questions:

  • What decisions will be made at this meeting?
  • What decision-makers should attend the meeting?
  • Would an informal chat or quick phone call be more effective?
  • Is every invitee vital to making this decision?

What other questions would you suggest?
