The more bodies thrown at a thing, the closer we get to creating a 'self-fulfilling'/tire-spinning prophecy. As someone who errs towards antisocial but has to mask to be productive, this is entirely unproductive. An 'XY problem', if you will.
I'm a big fan of 'command by negation', aim to do the thing - be prepared to adjust. There's still ongoing communication with this... it's just pointed/with intent. The article opens with this, emphasis mine:
> The meeting-industrial complex has grown to the point that communications has eclipsed creativity as the central skill of modern work.
Dubious, a lot is said... what sticks/is useful? Meetings contain more word salad and posturing than anything. One could argue meetings are more 'creative performance' than 'communication'
