Does the meeting move a revenue generating project forward or solve a customer issue? If not then it is 100% cost. BS feel good ideas like “coordination”, “alignment”, “transparency” and pretending to include people in the decision process has zero value unless it results in progress on revenue generating projects. The more people you include in a decision the slower you make progress. The sooner you make progress the sooner you get feedback and learn how to improve. The least productive and unsuccessful companies I have worked for spend most of their time on exactly the BS ideas you mentioned. The most successful companies I have ever worked for spent zero time on “coordination”, “alignment” etc. They were too busy killing the competition in the market place.
