You see en, I wish I can send 52 mins voice note to share my opinion.   Brooo... meetings are so "overrated"   Ok, not all meetings, shaa, but some meetings leave you scheduling another meeting to "Close out".   As corporate people, we need to agree on some "meeting rules"; that's the only way we can move forward. This is my template; adjust it per your company.   No meeting should last more than 15 mins (I said what I said) We all stand up, nobody sits. If leg pain you, you sef talk quick let's close Ask ChatGPT (should this be a meeting or an email) If the problem is not my problem, don't involve me; I take God beg you. Let's leave it at this 4, let me not "whelm" you with points. I'm not joking o, I'm plugging this idea to my colleagues starting from tomorrow, anybody disagree, we "meet" outside. 😡 COURSES OF THE WEEK ACTIVITY RECAP Relive the most impactful Jobberman events, find career tips, advice, and discover success stories designed to inspire your career journey.
