Abstract
Meetings are not a magic elixir! Some meetings are worthwhile. Some meetings are a waste of time. Some meetings should never have been held. Employs humour and wit to show how meetings often resemble a dramatic performing art with a predetermined cast of ten stereotypical characters. Finishes with an explanation of five common myths about meetings which often lead to using 100lb of energy to produce three ounces of results.
