Meetings, Bloody Meetings

It seems that far too often, the people tasked with scheduling and leading meetings have absolutely no idea on how a meeting should be run.

For someone who has a lot to do everyday and people calling for assistance and questions, my time is valuable. Rather than value and respect my time, I am often in meetings where the topic is fluid and the goal is unclear.

There is a great training video available called "Meetings, Bloody Meetings" and I think every manager should watch it. Unfortunately, it is rather expensive and not widely available but if you ask me, I can get you in touch with someone who has an official copy.
