Get Things Done, Stop Wasting Time
Manage episode 322373538 series 2461983
My today’s guest is Sam Bennett. In our conversation, we are going to discuss why at least 90% of work meetings are a complete waste of time and energy. You might think, I also attend some meetings that are not beneficial and without any outcome, or the outcome is just another meeting. Now, if you wonder how that plays into your productivity, we will also see some fundamental misconceptions when we think and talk, probably too much about the term productivity. Sam is a great person to talk to about those topics as she has written two bestselling books on how to get things done and how little but constant changes can have a huge impact on your life.
