Managers... managers with an addiction to meetings

I agree with you

How did you “Overcome” this?

I get dragged into more meetings then i do commits per week.

Ninety percent of the meetings in the place where I work could and should be company emails instead.

@C0D4 a bit of social engineering. All humans are intelligent in some form or another. And for each kind of intelligence there are problems that require lots of preparation that needs to be done every time you get interrupted.

I use that to explain how much a meeting bites into productivity until I see his/her face twist in horror.

Result: only 1 meeting maximum per day at first hour in the morning.
