Sensei was asked:
‘How do I make sure that people arrive on time and prepared to my meetings?’
After quiet contemplation, Sensei replied:
- Always include a detailed agenda with your meeting invite including desired outcome(s)
- Send the invite only to those that will add value to the meeting
- Send the invite at least 3 days in advance to give people time to prepare
- Make sure that you are at your meeting location at least 10 minutes before it is due to start
- Start your meeting on time regardless of who isn’t there yet
- When someone walks in late don’t stop or do a recap, simply acknowledge their presence with a ‘hello’ and continue
- Finish your meeting on time, making sure that you have time at the end to recap on all meeting actions with owners and deadlines
- Don’t forget to thank everyone for being there
