As we continue on our long, meandering path out of the pandemic, one thing that (I believe) is here to stay is the idea of Work From Home (WFH). In fact, if anything has seen a tidal shift over the last two years, it’s the very idea that WFH can be a viable practice.
Yes, I realize that many folks had been practicing the concept for some time prior, but it really wasn’t an accepted practice before the pandemic.
I’ve written before of my distaste for meetings (here, here and here) and specifically, meaningless meetings that should actually have been emails or a phone chat - or none of the above!
I’ve seen companies where meetings are the norm and the work of actually getting things done (time for deep thinking or focused work) becomes the exception, something that gets done after-hours (or worse, not at all). In fact, I’ve often wondered if there’s a correlation between the percentage of time that executives spend in meetings and the performance of the company.
