According to Naeem Zafar, a former CEO and current CEO coach, ineffective meetings are a 'pain point' for him as he strives for efficiency. He questions the necessity of having too many participants, stating, 'My whole life is driven by efficiency; I’ve been trying to optimize it all my life.' His perspective emphasizes that meetings should have clear purposes and reduce excess attendance for better productivity.
Zafar highlights the importance of a well-structured agenda in transforming meetings. He emphasizes that it’s crucial to define the type of meeting and its objectives before drafting an agenda, as the format will vary significantly. Natalie Berkiw-Scenna, a project management consultant, underlines that, 'An agenda for a status meeting will likely look different from a kick-off meeting for a big project or a brainstorming meeting.' This illustrates the need for tailored agendas.
