Time spent in meetings has been rising for years.
Over the past decade, the average professional鈥檚 time in meetings has climbed steadily鈥攊nterrupting our days and pulling us away from top priorities. Yet despite all that time together, 70 percent of meetings actually delay essential work , and 92 percent of employees say meetings keep them from their regular duties.
And let鈥檚 face it鈥�no one enjoys an unproductive meeting.
That's why more and more professionals in global organizations are learning facilitation skills: to lead discussions, create clarity and navigate decision making. Whether that's in a workshop, a staff retreat or a leadership meeting. When the stakes are high, we need clear direction and deep focus.
