Straight and Curly Episode 21: Meetings

If you work in the corporate world, you probably have to attend a lot of meetings and don’t get really get to push back against the fact that most meetings are a giant waste of time. Those of us who work for ourselves, we have a bit more control over that, yet we still find ourselves having more meetings than we should.

In this episode Carly and I discuss:

  • Why we loathe meetings so much,
  • How to do meetings better,
  • What the research says, and
  • How to get out of meetings that don’t really require your presence.
