Meetings are for people who don t wanna do the work. If a company is having a lot of meetings, it means they re not planning, not thinking ahead, aren t improving things, are not using software to automate the process, and their default is meetings because of bad leaders. Bad leaders turn to one tool when they re confused, when they're off track, and it s more meetings. But nothing gets done in a meeting. Without the work, you don t get any feedback to know if you re actually making things better.
