Episode notes

Your meetings aren't boring because there are too many; they're boring because they lack drama, structure, and purpose! That's the claim made by Patrick Lencioni's book: Death by Meeting (2004)! Watch or listen as Product Manager Brian Orlando and Enterprise Business Agility Consultant Om Patel use this book as a guide to discuss why most workplace meetings fail and how to transform them into productive, engaging sessions that people actually want to attend. KEY TOPICS COVERED: • The 3 Fatal Flaws That Kill Your Meetings • Lencioni's 4 Meeting Framework • Why "one comprehensive meeting" fails everyone equally • How to audit your recurring meetings (kill the useless ones) • How Lencioni's framework intersects with Scrum Whether you're a product manager or just plain drowning in calendar bloat, this episode gives you actionable strategies to reclaim your time and run meetings that actually matter! Let us know what you think in the comments... and what meetings you'd kill if you could!?!
