I spend a lot of time in meetings and work remotely 99% of the time. We spend so much time in meetings without giving them much thought to designing them for each purpose. Is the meeting a 1:1? Is it a 1:N status shareout? Maybe it should be an email. Is it an N:N status standup? Is it a group brainstorming session? There are best practices for brainstorming (and research shows that brainstorming individually produces more and better results than as a group). I highly recommend the book "The Surprising Science of Meetings: How You Can Lead Your Team to Peak Performance" [1] or, for a quick summary, the author's webinar "The Surprising Science of Meetings: Evidence-Based Insights Leaders Need to Gain a Competitive Advantage" [2].
