One 90 minute leadership meeting a week. Generally, that will be it, unless there is another issue that requires hashing something out. For my engineering team, I try to keep "meetings" at 0. Well organized asynchronous communication with the occasional slack discussion keeps things running pretty smoothly.

Terrific man. Glad to see folks be creative and disciplined against meeting culture.

Around here, everyone complains about meetings, yet few do anything about it.

Its just easier to go to meetings, instead of thinking hard to reduce others’ time with google docs, async discussion, etc.

And those who creatively push back against meetings fear being called “hard to work with”

How large of a team is it? How do you estimate the complexity of work?
