About MEETING DOJO

Meetings are important. They should be interesting and valuable. But often they suck. 

Drawing on the writing of Patrick Lencioni (The Table Group), we take a fresh look at how to think about, design and run your meetings.

Rather than a catch-all solution, we suggest four different formats — the daily check-in, weekly team meeting, ad hoc strategic and annual off-site.

If you feel stale and frustrated with the state of your meetings, both online and offline, try spicing things up by shifting how you structure your time together as a team. 

KEY CONTENT AREAS

  • Overview – understand the problem of “meeting soup” and why meetings are frustrating and boring.
  • Separate strategic topics from operational issues, and think about how to execute your strategy using a simple team plan. 
  • Learn to use different meetings for different outcomes:
    • Run a Daily Check-In using 3 key questions;
    • Chair a Weekly Team-Meeting with a real-time agenda;
    • Prepare a 2-hour Ad Hoc Strategic meeting for a single issue;
    • Design an Annual Off-Site without using butcher’s paper.
  • Form a tangible plan to shift the way you run meetings in your own work context.
