Смерть от совещаний by Patrick Lencioni, Патрик Ленсиони
5.0
Another book by Patrick Lencioni caught my attention. I appreciate his straightforward writing style, which is packed with examples and gets right to the point.
Nowadays, managers and leaders are increasingly relying on their teams to achieve goals. Providing clear context, involving team members in decision-making, and unblocking obstacles along the way are all essential to team success. However, team meetings can often be a drag for participants. This book offers insights on how to make meetings more enjoyable and productive.
The hero was inspired by the cinema industry, where a 96-minute movie can cover the entire life of ten people from birth to death. If such a feat can be accomplished in a mere hour and a half, why can't we make one decision during a 30-minute meeting? The key to success is to make a clear and interesting beginning. The first ten minutes are crucial to capture the audience's attention, where the conflict or challenge is presented. The second key is the focus, where participants sometimes try to cover too many topics at once. Covering too much ground can make meetings less interesting, like trying to cram deep stories and fun situations into a single sitcom series.
So, begin with a clear and interesting intro and avoid covering too many topics. Let's get started!
