Sick of worthless meetings? Good; here’s how to put an end to them. You ever felt like you’re in meetings and there are just too many people involved, or you just can’t get to a conclusion? Here are two things we do to make sure that we get the most out of our meetings and best use our people and clients’ times. 1. Get prepared before the meeting, meaning send over and share your problem and some thoughts around a solution with everybody. So when everybody gets together, you’re not rehashing that stuff or talking about it, then say ok, now come up with good ideas, now come up with solutions on the spot, right? No one can do that. 2. Abide by the single pizza roll. Single pizza rule. Yeah, the single pizza rule is great. Only invite people to your meeting; if you want it to be productive, only invite as many people that you can feed with one single large pizza. Four or five people most, right? So keep the meetings lean. Prepare before the meeting. So when you’re in the meetings, you can have robust conversations, problem, solve, ideat, all those great things, and you can come away closer or even with a solution. So remember, keep it lean, be prepared, single pizza, and get more shit done!
