Think of the last meeting you were in, whether virtual or in-person.

We can choose to design and facilitate better meetings, and now, more than ever, it’s important that we do.
If you want people to be engaged in meetings, then design your meetings to be engaging. And be disciplined in asking and answering the question, “Does this really need to be a meeting?”
