Cutting
Meetings
Down to Size
As part of a broad safety initiative,
meetings get the ax
Last summer, we got word that something was going to be
done about the problem of meetings.
We made a few calls. One source was “back-to-back
until 6 o’clock.” Another had a 15-minute “window”
later that day. When we eventually reached someone, we discovered
that a meeting to discuss the problem of meetings was actually
in the works. No one had managed to schedule it, however,
because everyone was always “in a meeting.”
Now, though, meetings are front and center on the radar
screen.
