> I noticed US-based employees prefer to schedule a meeting for an idea and discuss/think/make decision on the meeting.

This is probably why the vast majority of meetings I've had in my career have been utterly without value -- productive discussions, brainstorming, and decision-making rarely happen in those meetings.

Do these meetings have an agenda? Make sure there's an agenda published BEFORE the meeting.

Yes. But the problem is that meetings are superficial in nature (out of necessity, given the format). So actual thought and consideration has to happen outside of the meeting.
