Hidden Cost of Meetings


Hidden cost of meetings

Have you experienced any of the following scenarios?

  • Publish the meeting notes, everyone is too busy to read, they just ask you for an update the next time they see you in person.

  • Invite non-core team members to a meeting and spend the first 10 minutes of the meeting bringing them up to speed.

  • You’re invited to attend a meeting during the most productive time of your day.

  • You’re sitting in a meeting that isn’t relevant to you, but you feel bad leaving in the middle of the meeting… You stick it out.

  • You’re asked to attend a meeting on behalf of your boss … You have no idea what’s going on, nor are you empowered to make any decisions.

There is a cost associated to everything we do. Managing your time and the value you bring to the organization is a personal responsibility and something every one of us should manage and balance. When it comes to meetings, are you doing a good job?
