Meeting Etiquette

Recently I attended a large corporate meeting that lasted nearly two hours. During that time, attendees came in late and left early, and some spent half the time on their PDA. So frustrating! We could’ve accomplished just as much in half the time if everyone was on their game. With the incessant number of weekly staff meetings, client sit-downs, brainstorming sessions, and committee get-togethers, it’s no surprise that participants can barely pay attention. But working collaboratively on a project or to develop new strategies can result in innovative ideas. It’s time to refresh ourselves on meeting etiquette—and keep that group dynamic on track!
