Switching off the video
Nearly half of workers said they had too many unnecessary meetings on their calendars. Even more, at 53%, said they still felt compelled to attend those meetings.Workers who attend what they view a unnecessary meetings report multitasking in 70% of the gatherings — it was also common for people to hide or mute their video and audio, Rogelberg found.
"Proclivity to not turn down a meeting invite is amplified for women. They were concerned about burdening others, had greater sensitivity to impressions and using others' time," Rogelberg said. For example, meeting agendas should be framed as a set questions to be answered, versus a list of topics for discussion, he said."Now you're really thinking about why you're actually having this meeting. By framing it as a question to be answered, you know who to invite. If you can't think about any questions, it likely means you don't need a meeting."
Education is better, than parties, are celebrations!

Sounds like the work of the efficiency consultants from Office Space. I’ll be by later to accept my promotion.
Well who didn’t know this 20 years ago. Also, have an agenda. Don’t accept lateness or non participation. Follow up on outcomes and agreements. Recognize achievements. Nothing new, just work smarter.
Imagine what we could save cutting government and minding our own business? Better than switching to democratic socialism …
How about eliminating all “unnecessary” meetings?
But what about all my pre-meeting meetings and the wonderful pre-pre-meeting meetings? How will we ever get stuff done? 😂
