Episode Overview:Meetings: love them, hate them, or multitask through them—why are they so often a mess? Eric and Jen dive into the chaos, sharing how meetings can suck less (spoiler: it starts with an agenda and the right people in the room). If you’ve ever stared at your calendar wondering why you’re in a meeting called “Touch Base,” this episode is for you.

What You’ll Learn:

  • Why having a full calendar isn’t a sign of productivity.
  • The “Bottom Line Up Front” (BLUF) trick to get to the point—fast.
  • How to avoid the classic “everyone and their dog” invite list.
  • Easy ways to keep participants engaged (and off mute excuses).
  • The secret power of skilled facilitation (hint: it’s not just public speaking).
