If You Run a Meeting Without an Agenda, You Are Wasting Everyone's Time

An agenda is not bureaucracy — it's a contract with the people you've asked to show up. It tells them what to prepare, what to expect, and when they can leave. A meeting without an agenda drifts, and drift costs more than the hour on the calendar: it costs trust and energy.

Even three bullet points are enough. Share them before the meeting starts, and you'll be amazed how much sharper the conversation becomes.
