I’ve run many good ones (and bad ones).
Here are 7 tips to help make them better:
The leader doesn’t always need to lead.
Rotate who runs each team meeting.
The benefits:
• Keeps the meeting fresh
• Helps your team build skills
• Encourages new ideas + voices
• Drives engagement + ownership
My team meetings immediately improved.
Too much meeting time is spent educating.
That should be done in writing beforehand.
Require an email 24 hours prior that covers:
• Topic
• Context
• Why it’s being discussed
• Desired outcome of discussion
This alone can cut meeting times in half.
Meeting agendas often focus on time.
• Discuss marketing budget (15 mins)
• Review new product (30 mins)
Instead, focus them on outcomes.
• Decide marketing budget
• Make decision on feature
When outcomes are achieved, end the meeting.
Different topics require different headspaces.
It can be helpful to batch items. Example:
• Start with “rapid fire” decisions
• These are items that are quickly resolved
• This creates quick positive momentum
Then switch to the deeper agenda items.
Team meetings are a great for development.
My favorite idea:
• Dedicate 1 meeting / month to development
• Have a team member teach their best skill
• The team gets to learn new skills
• The teacher gets to share their strengths
Win-win.
Invite people from other orgs.
Give them 30 minutes to present.
The benefits:
• Keeps the meeting fresh
• Keeps your team informed
• Helps build key relationships
• Fosters further development
I'd do this at least 2x per quarter.
Audit meetings at least 1x per quarter.
Then iterate on team feedback.
A few levers you can adjust:
• Cadence - try multiple, shorter session
• Duration - try different meeting lengths
• Format - try various styles
Don't settle. Continually optimize.
• Experiment
• Rotate ownership
• Batch agenda items
• Educate beforehand
• Spend time on development
• Invite people from other orgs
• Focus on outcomes, not time

The fabrication of the "asymptomatic (super) spreader" is the coronation of the total nons(ci)ense in the belief system of #CoronasWitnesses.
