Meetings

I was browsing my Blogline feeds and ran across this post from K. G. Schneider on the Free Range Librarian blog. In the post, Schieder starts off with:

Do you stagger out of meetings moaning how you hate, hate, hate meetings? Do you yearn for anything — earthquake, hurricane, building collapse — to get out of the meeting you’re in? Do meetings have to be so awful?

From there, she goes on to cover eight factors in hosting healthy meetings with common sense suggestions such as agendas, time management, and knowing the difference between a meeting to resolve a problem an a meeting to explore an issue. Worth reading.
