👥 Why meetings?
There are many reasons to call meetings:
- Accountability
- Knowledge transfer
- Transparency
- Status
- Review
- Oversight
- Improve/maintain relationships
- Brainstorming
However, in this age of excellent collaboration tools (Git workflows, project boards, etc.), meetings are an inefficient way to handle the first 6 items on the above list. If our workflow does not provide complete transparency into what everyone is doing, then there may be opportunities to improve our workflow.
