How to keep meetings short and sweet

How to keep meetings short and sweet

Or should we say 'sweaty'...

Work meetings can become extra long, extra tedious, and extra everything if you have a day filled with them and no time to fulfil your job duties. 

There are things that the meeting moderator can do to ensure that meetings run smoothly and efficiently. 

For instance, setting clear objectives for the meeting, starting on time, ensuring everything goes on track, setting a time limit, and encouraging meeting attendants to prepare beforehand to assist in keeping things productive and concise. 

However prepared meetings appear to be, there's always a chance of things going over time. We found a South African company that has found the perfect solution to long meetings...

Their solution is somewhat genius and gets everyone (even the talker) to the point. 

Right Click Media Digital Solutions (RCM) is a leading digital marketing company with an active social media account. They nailed this meeting hack, which we certainly feel responsible for sharing.

As you can see, each of the sales employees at this digital marketing firm kept things concise and to the point. 

"Wall sits are a real quad burner and are generally used for building isometric strength and endurance in the quadriceps muscle group, glutes, and calves. Wall sits are not complicated, but many people get them wrong. You know that you perform wall sits properly if your hips and knees form right angles at 90 degrees, your back is flat against the wall, and your heels are on the ground." (Very Well Fit)

We guess it's something of a win for employees as they save time by keeping meetings short and sweet, and they also focus on their lower-body exercise routine.
