Meetings: Clarify Your Purpose

Meetings That Work ~ session #2

Too many meetings seem to be little more than people giving reports. These kind of meetings tend to focus on retrospective information (e.g. last month’s financial report or summaries of projects that people are doing outside of the meeting) - a formula for unproductive and boring meetings. Technology only amplifies bad meetings - who hasn’t narrowly escaped death by powerpoint?
Retrospective information can be useful, but in the most productive meetings participants focus on achieving outcomes that are prospective in nature: alignment, attunement, and action.
