7 Mistakes That’ll Ruin
Your Progress
Have a Vague Agenda
If there’s little to no agenda or time parameters,
you’re headed for trouble.
Late Start
This is a surefire way to send signals that you’re less than serious.
Cell Phone Interference
Checking your cell phone or allowing others to check theirs is a quick way lose attention and derail your meeting.
Allow Endless Brainstorming
Have room for brainstorming, but give some boundaries and focus on the objective.
Invite Too Many People
If three people are integral to the project, invite them and no one else.
Come to No Conclusions
Convert your ideas into action plans. Great ideas with no implementation is a time waste.
Run Overtime
Set time parameters and stick to them. Don’t let discussions wander down wrong paths.
