Quote of the Day

I believe that every meeting in every organization should be canceled, only those that have a specific purpose should be rescheduled, and the intervals of standing meetings should be set based upon the needs of current reality instead of habit.

David,

You're welcome.

An executive recently showed me his schedule. It consisted of one meeting after another with some running concurrently so he had to move back-and-forth between two meetings.

I asked him when he has time to think.
