Meetings

The bane of most managers (and non-managers) is having to attend meetings. I have just finished reading an excellent book that I want to recommend to everyone who schedules, chairs, or attends meetings. This book is a very easy read and you will put it down with a lot of great ideas on how to take a good meeting and make it better and how to take a rotten meeting and make it one you look forward to attending.
