Would you "trade" 15 minutes for 90 minutes? Smart teams do this every day!

Many people cringe at the idea of one more meeting. That's typically because meetings are not well-organized and driven by purpose, process, and payoffs.

Yet research shows that a proper Daily Huddle of 15 minutes or less saves EVERYONE in that meeting 90 minutes a day with...

- Less wasted effort
- Better coordination and handoffs
- Fewer interruptions for status checks
- Reduced rework due to errors

Use these three simple questions each day with your team and let me know the results.

Dear Fairy Godmother, please make this the year that meetings are not a waste of time.

I am not asking for world peace. I am asking that 12 people stop blocking 60 minutes so three can talk.

This carousel shares four secrets to productive meetings. None are revolutionary. All are ignored.

Swipe.
Cringe a little.
Fix one thing.

โœจ Fairy Godmother, you can rest now.
