From Great Leadership
According to Andrew Grove, former CEO of Intel, meetings is a powerful highly leveraged tool used by a manager to improve productivity. Why is this so? You have a single set up - in one meeting you are able to get across so many people on one occasion and you can collaborate/cooperate because everybody who makes the decision could be there. That is the time for candor and action: no stalling, no second guessing. You can observe the body language and the behavior of the the protagonist in full splendor. Thus in a meeting, you can communicate, ask for action, learn from the subordinate (this is important under utilized value of a meeting)
Meetings could be unproductive too, and ruin morale if:
1. You are late;
2. Take up too many things,
3. Manage individual performance
4. Share things that are in the email;
5. No agenda.
