How to increase meeting efficiency?

Death by meeting? Kill efficiency sucker habits by evaluating and adjusting 3 meeting approaches:

1. Efficiency usually refers to getting more done in allotted time or less, so consider the meeting setting. Reaching resolutions and agreement requires back and forth that’s better handled in a meeting setting; and status updates can possibly be switched to emails.
2. Too much talk or talking across each other can become contentious and drawn out. You may need to institute parliamentary procedures and timed speaking.
3. Get off the autopilot with scheduling 1-hour Zoom meetings! Re-evaluate the business purpose and psychological needs of the participants to determine if another option supports greater efficiency: a) more frequent meets but in 30 min each? b) meet in person at a regular interval & the rest online?
