What does the science of meetings tell us?
Episode 1
Let’s admit it, there have been plenty of times we’ve left a meeting thinking it could have been summed up in an email. This episode will explore the research behind meeting productivity and whether meetings can ultimately help or hinder our bottom line.
We sit down with Dr. Steven Rogelberg, author and professor, and dissect the science behind meetings.
