In response to "Please help me with my homework. Could you give me some feedback on the questions inside. Topic one is meetings TIA" by crash davis

What do you like to know before a meeting?
-what's it about?
-agenda (I love an agenda with "ten minutes for this, ten minutes for this...")
-who else will be there (allows me to assess whether the right people are in the room)?
-what are decision points ideally coming out of meeting?

· What makes a meeting productive?
-get there early to make sure tech works
-someone to keep us on track (the "off-topic police;" a mean facilitator)
-level setting at beginning of meeting

· What makes a meeting unproductive?
-"I was never going to agree anyway"
-fucking betsy and her endless talk about planning her wedding. aren't you married by now? you've been talking about this for two years, betsy.
-bad tech

· Do you prefer to lead the meeting? Why or why not?
-I like to lead because it makes me pay attention.

· What steps should be taken post-meeting?
-for the love of god, send out decisions, next steps (with assignments) and schedule follow up meetings like immediately
