When Meetings Become the Work Instead of Enabling It

Picture a typical Tuesday morning. You're already running behind, coffee in hand, rushing to your third meeting of the day. It's only 10 AM. As you settle into your chair-physical or virtual-a familiar thought crosses your mind: "Why am I even here?" If this sounds painfully familiar, you're experiencing what costs U.S. companies $37 billion annually in wasted productivity. The average employee now spends 31 hours monthly in meetings, while CEOs dedicate a staggering 27 hours weekly-more than half their working time-to gatherings that often accomplish little. Yet here's the paradox: meetings remain essential to organizational success. From climate treaties to product launches, humanity's greatest achievements emerge from people coming together with focused attention. The challenge isn't eliminating meetings but transforming them from soul-crushing obligations into engines of meaningful progress.
