Meetings Suck: Turning One of The Most Loathed Elements of Business into One of the Most Valuable
Description
We all know that meetings suck, right? You hear it all the time. It’s the one
thing that almost everyone in business can agree on. Except it’s not actually
true. Meetings don’t suck we suck at running meetings. When done right,
meetings not only work, they make people and companies better. In Meetings
Suck, world renowned business expert and growth guru Cameron Herold teaches
you how to use focused, time effective meetings to help you and your company
soar. This book shows you immediately actionable, step-by-step systems that
ensure that you and everyone in your organization improves your meetings,
right away. In the process, you’ll turn meetings that suck into meetings that
work. In life, we always hear about people who’ve made huge decisions from
their gut – without data.Today, I want you to make a decision not only from
your gut, but also from some data. A decision that is only $12 per employee
but will be priceless for your business. Right now, your gut is telling you
something is wrong with your company’s meetings. You KNOW everyone complains
about meetings. People HATE going to them, they HATE running them, and they
really have NO idea which meetings are truly necessary but they hold meetings
simply because they think that is what they SHOULD do. Even some of the
smartest CEOs in the world complain about meetings – Elon Musk publicly told
employees at Tesla & SpaceX to walk out of meetings if they weren’t being run
properly. I sent Elon a message saying that wasn’t going to fix anything – the
key is to fix the root of the problem – NOT continue to ignore why meetings
suck. A Meeting is – Any phone call, video call or occasion where 2 or more
people meet to discuss or work-through office topics. Most employees on
average spend 1-2 hours per day in meetings. And likely, none of those
employees – front-line staff or leaders – have had any training on how to
attend meetings or participate in them, LET ALONE How to RUN THEM. Consider
this… If the Average employee spends just 1 Hour per day in meetings –
that’s 1/8th of their time. If the Average employee earns $50,000 per year.
And they’re spending 1/8th of their time in meetings, that means you’re paying
$6,250 dollars per year for just ONE employee to attend meetings. The reality
is, employees spend 1/8th of their time – and 1/8th of your company’s payroll
– doing something they have literally NO idea how to do. The Reality is… 95%
of employees are booking & leading meetings – and they have NEVER been trained
on how to run them. 95% of employees have had NO training on how to show up
and participate in the meetings they attend daily. And 95% of employees and
companies have no idea what meetings are even necessary to hold. Meetings CAN
be hugely effective – IF you know how to run them Meetings don’t SUCK, we just
SUCK at running meetings. Investing $15 per employee – to help ensure the
$50,000 a year you spend on them is an obvious and easy choice. This could be
the most impactful $15 you’ll ever spend and will save the company’s money,
time and resources instantly. Buying a copy of Meetings Suck for 100% of your
employees and having them read it this month will have huge impact on your
company’s success. Read more
