Just because it’s an email/message doesn’t mean it’s not a meeting. The number of hours I’ve wasted having intricate discussions on Slack or Email instead of jumping in a call for 5 minutes is too damn high.
But everyone’s busy so finding those 5min of high bandwidth time is hard. Let’s smear it through a whole 2 hours of low bandwidth communication instead. Make sure everyone’s maximally distracted the whole time trying to juggle 3 things. Perfect.
