Make Meetings Matter

Respect people’s time. Design for different humans. Use AI for efficiency. Make meetings matter.

Description:

Time is our most valuable nonrenewable resource, yet we routinely fill calendars with meetings that could have been an email.

In this practical session, we’ll rethink meetings around the humans in them. Learn when a meeting is actually the right tool, how to design in-person and hybrid meetings for different generations and work styles and where AI can take some of the busywork off your plate. Most importantly, learn how to use the time you have together for what humans do best: connect, collaborate, create and decide.

You’ll leave with a reusable agenda and follow-up formula you can put to work immediately.

Three Key Takeaways

1. Respect the time.
Know when you need people together and when an email, message or update can accomplish the job more efficiently.

2. Design for different humans.
Create meetings that account for different generations, personalities, processing styles and in-person or virtual participation.

3. Let AI do the busywork. Let humans do the human work.
Use AI to help build agendas, organize input, capture takeaways and draft follow-up, freeing the meeting itself for discussion, creativity, connection and decisions.

Included: Free Agenda Template and follow-up formula (with AI Prompt)
