00:00:00.100 Meetings are the biggest time wasters.

00:00:02.500 People use meetings to delay action.

00:00:05.300 A lot of people default to meetings

00:00:07.160 because nobody gets in trouble for organizing a meeting.

00:00:09.460 It almost feels like the right thing to do.

00:00:11.180 Yet not having a meeting and making a decision is scary

00:00:14.380 because now you're accountable for that decision.

00:00:16.300 A team understands the vision of the business

00:00:18.520 and they understand the strategy of the business

00:00:20.160 and they understand the resources of the business,

00:00:21.860 the constraints of the business.

00:00:23.040 Then they should be empowered to make decisions

00:00:25.320 that don't require somebody else's feedback

00:00:27.180 to move forward.
