A meeting should be scheduled when it respects the unique opportunity of people coming together.
It’s a special space where ideas are shared, problems are discussed and decisions are made.
Unfortunately, meetings can easily devolve into status updates or platforms for opinions which don’t add value. And we’ve all been in a meeting where watching the clock is the most interesting thing to do.
So it’s important to only schedule a meeting when it’s the best format to progress a matter.
And you should always be deliberate with your focus with every meeting invite you receive.
