We Hate Meetings

We Hate Meetings. 30 Days of Better Meetings

Thank you for joining us!

We’ve been counting down to a pretty exciting announcement, and today we’re ready to share it with the world. Here it goes.

We hate meetings.

However, that’s not all. We hate meetings so you can love them. In fact, we hate meetings so much, we’re doing something about it.

30 Days of Better Meetings

In that spirit, today we’re introducing our 30 Days of Better Meetings campaign. Every day for the next 30 days, Qworky will post, publish, or smoke signal actionable blog posts, newsletters, Facebook statuses, or Twitter messages on “how to get the most out of your meetings”. Who knows we might even release a product or two.

Why?

Culturally, we’ve all become desensitized to bad meetings. The situation is so daunting that bad meetings are now the norm. Think about your workday.  How many hours do you spend each day in meetings? If you’re like most people 50% of that meeting time is wasted.

And when was the last time you worked in the evening, or the weekends? Again, if you’re like most- this happens far more often than you’d like to admit.

So to recap; hours of every workday  are wasted in unproductive meetings. And to make up for the societal norm of unproductive meetings- we spend more of our personal and family time- catching up on work we would otherwise do in the day.

Nay we say. Outlive, outsmart, outdream. How about we just eliminate ‘unproductive’ meetings?

Consider these 30 days of Qworky arming you with facts, statistics, and insights to take back your weekend. Have fun with us, share with your colleague, and friends, and let us know why you hate meetings – we’ll turn it into a cool post card :-)

Let us know. Why do you hate meetings?
