Too many meetings?

More Front-end Bloggers All from Jeffrey Zeldman Presents View Too many meetings? on zeldman.com

At Automattic, we know our time is finite and precious. Here are the questions we ask ourselves before agreeing to any meeting:

  1. Am I investing time toward the things that are doing the most to help me grow and improve my ability to contribute?
  2. How much of my time is contributing to my team’s goals, and choosing the right ones?
  3. Is the work effective? Is it moving the needle? Can I describe it to a friend over dinner in a way that gets them excited? Can I blog about it?
  4. Are all my meetings so effective that you look forward to them? (Don’t laugh. It is possible.)
