I’m a big proponent of optional and required on meeting invites.

Required: tech lead and VP.

Optional: everyone else.

I have nothing against people showing up just because they want to snoop on what’s being said and spending half the time on their phone — but I reply maybe to anything optional sent to me.

I find people sort themselves out if you have enough floating optional invites you can’t attend all of them.
