Agenda Setting
We’ve all had to sit through meetings where we’ve thought, “this hasn’t really gone anywhere” or “this could have been an email”. Meetings seem productive because they’re still “work”, but unless they’re planned properly, there’s the potential to go astray, and they can sometimes end up being a waste of everybody’s time.
