Good meetings matter

Do you want to be known as a person who runs good meetings? Meetings are the places where people create new products, create solutions to challenging problems and organize teams to accomplish goals. Being competent at running meetings is critical to ensure that you are successful. Start building your meeting leadership skills by reading this book and practicing its techniques. Good Meetings: A Handbook lays out all the tools you need to know to run good meetings.

I wrote it because I’d been to too many bad meetings in my long tech career. Even though there are plenty of books out there on how to run meetings, I still saw lots of bad meetings. I started the hashtag #endboringmeetings.
This book can be read end to end if you are new to the world of meetings. I cover all aspects of meetings in this short handbook. When you are finished reading this book you will know everything you need to run good meetings.

If you’ve been around meetings for a long time, you can use this book as a reference.
Please share this book with colleagues and your team.
