Are you fed-up with unproductive and pointless meetings? Have you ever been a part of any meeting and thought

So, do you think we can avoid such meetings?

Definitely.

Remember to point down these 2 questions, and ask it to the leading person of a meeting. It will help you to determine if a meeting is necessary or another waste of time.

1. Can you please explain the goal of a meeting in one line?

That will help you to determine if a person is clear about a meeting and its goal. And, if it’s explainable in one line, do you really need a meeting for it?

2. Can you please share the outline of our meeting?

Wouldn’t it be easier for you to decide whether you need to be part of this meeting or not, by just asking the outline? It will limit the time of a meeting with the exact points to be discussed. No waste of time at all.

What do you think? Will it work for you? Would you like to test it?

Before you move anywhere else, my questions to you.

Do you want to add any other question?

How do you make your meetings productive?

What are the problems you faced with meetings?

If you’ve answers for any of these questions, write it down in the comment.

I’m waiting.
