If you work a typical office job, even remotely, you probably spend more time than you'd like in meetings. Last year, a survey from the AI customer engagement company Dialpad found that 83 percent of 2,800 respondents said they spent four to 12 hours a week in meetings. If you're a founder or executive, that time may ramp up to more than 20 hours. No one could blame you for being exhausted. Whether they're virtual or in-person, meetings require focus and can be draining, especially for introverts who aren't energized by interactions with coworkers. Unless your company takes the bold stance of eliminating types of meetings, it's unlikely you can escape them entirely. But you can at least try to make them shorter, especially if you're the organizer. Worker gatherings are typically way too long, dragged down by Zoom issues, idle chitchat, and the lack of a clear agenda. No strategy is perfect, but here are some ideas for cutting down the time you're stuck in meeting hell. |
