Read previewA former Facebook director thinks the weekly 1:1 meeting with your manager needs a reboot. AdvertisementAgarwal suggested bosses give feedback every three to six months rather than weekly. But it's what "good" managers did," Agarwal wrote of the weekly appointments. Instead, Agarwal suggested that bosses should save themselves and their direct reports' time to focus on getting work done and making the company successful. Weekly 1:1s undermine this," he wrote.

☆ The best use of generative AI for office workers so far could be relieving a massive productivity drain: meeting overload
  + stars: | 2024-04-09 | by ( Jacob Zinkula | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +6 min
Many workers say meeting overload can hurt their productivity. Microsoft's research suggests that using AI tools to chip away at meeting time could be the low-hanging fruit for some new adopters. Meetings summaries aren't the only way AI tools are helping workers save time. AdvertisementA Slack survey of over 10,000 global desk workers conducted in January found that 24% had tried using AI tools on the job. The learning curve that can come with AI tools is why some companies are providing employees with more training resources and encouraging them to experiment with these technologies.

☆ 6 Tips for Better Meetings

Steven G. Rogelberg, a professor at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte and the author “The Surprising Science of Meetings,” has thought a lot about meetings, good and bad. “I think for the longest time organizations just believed bad meetings were the cost of doing business and, therefore, there was no appetite to think about trying to solve it,” he said. “Leaders have finally started to say that we have to have a way to do this better.”Here are his top tips on how to meet better (or not at all). Have questions that need to be answered. If you have a question to answer, not only do you have to really think about why you are gathering, you’ll know if the meeting was successful: You’ll have an answer.
☆ This could've been an email: If MLB can speed up games, bosses can shorten meetings. Here's how.

If new rules can improve game speed, surely bosses can make meetings run more efficiently. If Major League Baseball can speed up games, surely bosses can make meetings more efficient, right? Try, for instance, forcing yourself to cut meetings by half: Your weekly meeting becomes an every-other-week meeting; your hourlong meetings become 30-minutes ones. Ask for adviceJust as MLB needs to consider the fan experience of being at the ballpark or watching a game on TV, bosses need to think about their workers' experiences in meetings, Rogelberg said. "Instead of putting people in hours of meetings without ever asking them about what they're accomplishing, you need to engage," he said.
☆ If you've ever thought, 'this meeting could have been an email,' you were right — meetings cost companies up to $100 million a year

A four-day work week, remote work, and "no meetings" are the new sticking points for job hoppers. Smaller companies with 100 workers would save nearly $2.5 million annually if they dispensed with meetings, Rogelberg found, while firms with at least 5,000 employees would save more than $100 million. On average, the companies Rogelberg interviewed wasted about $25,000 per employee by scheduling them for unnecessary meetings. The report defines "unnecessary" meetings as ones that employees reported that they could skip, as long as they were kept in the loop. But that's not to say that people aren't enamored with something like a four-day workweek, anyway.
