| What problem are you solving? | Meetings are meant to help people stay on track. They help roll out plans and clarify expectations. They exist to help everyone stay up-to-date. But all too often, meetings are inefficient, unproductive, not engaging, and disorganized. Typically, nothing is done when a meeting sucks, but by arming users with a tool to anonymously review their meetings, we can help understand why meetings fail or why they are successful. Every month, we aim to publish our findings to shed light and raise awareness to the quality of meetings. With this information, we can help promote better meetings by sharing and providing monthly insights. |
