This is the kind of stuff that makes me feel like I’m surrounded by idiots.

Waiting for attendance is simply scheduled into the agenda. The first 5 minutes of the agenda is reserved for quorum. There is absolutely no need for making it any more complicated, or playing games with the scheduled time like the post suggests. Childish nonsense.



But how is anyone supposed cultivate their personal brand and write books and substack articles about this type of meeting “hack”. Party pooper.

;)


Absolutely. Insightful LinkedIn posts from thought leaders who complete every sentence or utterance of a thought with two line breaks...

Like this.

Aren't going to write themselves, are they? :D


This is exactly the problem. I don't know if any other sector of business runs on as much as fad as ours does.


Marketing/Sales?


of wasting 5 minutes?

"Uhm, shall we wait for Jeff?"


If you don’t have quorum the meeting is rescheduled.

“Jeff you didn’t show up to the meeting. What happened?”

Jeff is eventually put on a PIP or fired for not showing up to meetings without notice.
