Key Takeaways:

• The core issue with meetings is that most people were never taught how to run them effectively.
• Leaders must shift from doing the work to designing how work gets done.
• Meetings should follow one of three modes: Flare (brainstorming), Focus (decision-making), or Share (updates).
• Clearly defining the meeting mode upfront prevents misalignment and frustration.
• Meetings should always end with defined action steps, ownership, and deadlines.
