Does work happen at work? Well, if you have been inundated with the typical board room meetings as well as the project management meetings…you know that a lot of things don’t necessarily happen here. So what can be done about it? Well, for one thing we need to get rid of a lot of these pointless meetings and work on being more productive.
If that productivity comes through the notion of a collaborative effort, than so be it. However, if we find ourselves engaging in meetings for the sake of meetings, perhaps we need to move on and find a different way to collaborate.
Here to help with that discussion is Jason Fried. Listen to what he has to say about the typical meeting and whether it is helpful or not. Perhaps he has some points here that we should take into the board room with us.
