You're having too many meetings, and they're probably too big, says Adrian Shepherd, a British productivity consultant.
Adrian Shepherd is a British productivity consultant who's lived and worked in Japan for the past 24 years. He says that meetings can come at a cost to businesses — an estimated $37 billion a year, according to The Muse. Unfortunately, the time spent in meetings has only grown since 2000. Shepherd says they should be reduced as much as possible. Meetings should be as small as possible, and focused on discussion rather than just distributing information.
