Ask HN: Should we normalize declining meetings?
2 points by scitechx35 2061 days ago
What have you done to reduce your meetings post COVID? What's the right way to build a culture where people don't default to meeting for every small thing?

As all meetings are now remote, and most people get fed up with wearing a headset for too long, all our meetings are half an hour maximum. We found most meetings were redundant or outright unnecessary.
I find the agile ritualist to be one of the primary sources of meeting inflation. No problem is too small that this class of people won’t schedule a “check-in” for.
