New Delhi, Aug. 21 -- Love them or not, meetings do take up a large piece of what we call work time. It's how we discuss our plan of action, chalk out ideas, share updates, brainstorm on projects, and do things. Yet many business leaders consider meetings as a necessary evil and it's easy to understand why-we (team and you) meet too often.

Well, overcoming the "let's get everyone together in a meeting room" instinct can be problematic. I say this, for both experienced leaders and new managers. This, however, results in employees getting little to zero flow time. Their projects always seem to have put off, and ultimately team productivity suffers.
