Like a mindless drone? Or are you advocating for more meetings?
- huffmsa 7y agoI'm saying timebox discussion like anything else. Have discussions regularly, but in a scheduled manner. Meetings suck because people aren't prepared / the meeting isn't scoped or well defined. They don't suck "just because". Treat your meetings just like any other assignments. Clearly define it and expect people to have their shit together. Then you don't have to have discussions all the time and you can actually execute on what's been discussed and planned.
