Listen "Get Things Done, Stop Wasting Time"
Episode Synopsis
My today’s guest is Sam Bennett. In our conversation, we are going to discuss why at least 90% of work meetings are a complete waste of time and energy. You might think, I also attend some meetings that are not beneficial and without any outcome, or the outcome is just another meeting. Now, if you wonder how that plays into your productivity, we will also see some fundamental misconceptions when we think and talk, probably too much about the term productivity. Sam is a great person to talk to about those topics as she has written two bestselling books on how to get things done and how little but constant changes can have a huge impact on your life.▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 💡 QUESTIONS AND VIEWS HIGHLIGHTED IN THIS EPISODE:Why meetings are so infamousBasics of an effective meetingHow to conduct inclusive and participative meetingsThe art of virtual meetingsThoughts on productivitySome have it others not, time▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ♨ EXCERPTS YOU MIGHT WANT TO JUMP IN00:00 Intro 02:00 Let's have a meeting06:00 From Actor to Author13:40 Meeting Culture31:50 First steps43:20 Bullshit tasks52:55 Productivity vs Balance▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Flash Hub provides tools, workflows, and skills to hire freelance experts and set up your first team in a matter of days.
