Let's Stop Meeting Like This: Tools to Save Time and Get More Done

4.4/5 (1290744 ratings)
Most people regard meetings as places where productivity goes to die. How different would it be if they were places where you could actually get your work done right there in the meeting? Richard and Emily Axelrod have invested thirty years answering this question, and they have a field-tested answer. Using the same work design principles that transformed the mind-numbing assembly line into the dynamic factory floor, and that make video games so engaging, their new book offers a flexible, repeatable process that has already been used to run thousands of productive meetings in all kinds of organizations. It takes more than an agenda and a note taker. The Axelrods show how to design every aspect of a meeting from the way you greet people at the beginning to how you sum up at the end so that the experience will be energizing rather than enervating, and relevant and helpful to every participant. Their detailed, six stage approach, which they dub the Meeting Canoe (since, like a canoe, it adapts to changing conditions and is a collective effort) is a seismic shift in the way we view, use, and participate in meetings. The many current users of this system will never go back. Neither will you."
