How can we redesign our culture by redesigning our meetings?
Why do well-designed meetings allow for more time for individual and value-added work?
My guest on this episode is Rebecca Hinds, author of “Your Best Meeting Ever” and leading expert on organizational behavior and the future of work.
During our conversation, Rebecca and I discuss the following:
- Deciding what deserves to be a meeting (and what doesn’t) is one of the most important decisions leaders can make.
- How poorly designed meetings become signals of busyness rather than drivers of real work.
- What meetings reveal about your organization's culture
- Why treating meetings like a product changes how leaders think about time, collaboration, and outcomes.
- How high-performing organizations design clear communication norms so meetings are a last resort, not the default.
