Personally I just don’t want to do all the heavy lifting which is what “let’s talk about whatever you want!” means. Meh what I want is one less meeting on my calendar - now how’s your freaking dog doing sir?
- titanomachy 5y agoThen say that... "I think I'd like to reduce the cadence of this meeting to bi-weekly, we haven't had anything substantial to discuss in the last few weeks." Your manager probably wants calendar time back at least as much as you do.
- redisman 5y agoIt’s already bi-weekly. I dont think I’d be rewarded for asking to do it every 6 months
- bryanrasmussen 5y agoI mean there are time ranges between bi-weekly and every 6 months.
- baxtr 5y agoI am sorry to tell you: if you want to work with people, you have to spent time with them, bond and built trust. That's not just another meeting in your calendar. If you have that mindset you might want to consider working as a freelancer. Which is what I do now since I hated all the internal politics.
- lariati 5y agoI feel like management has to have the emotional intelligence to separate who wants to talk about their favorite TV series for 30 minutes and who would prefer to just have one less meeting on their calendar. Having variability here is good leadership to me.
