How Much Are Meetings Hurting You? - Mike Cohn

I’m emailing because we keep seeing the same issue surface in different organizations, even where teams are experienced and committed.
If something isn’t working, it will usually show up in your meetings first. That’s because work habits show up in real meetings, under real pressure.
If planning, reviews, retrospectives, and daily scrums aren’t working, agile won’t work. That’s where priorities get set, decisions get made, and trade-offs happen (or don’t).
After seeing capable teams benefit from an objective view of their meetings, we designed:

Meeting Observation & Recommendations (MOR)

It isn’t more training (many teams don’t need ‘more’ training; they need direction)
It doesn’t require your team to step away from work
And it’s not about catching people out

It’s about removing the constraints that are holding your team back.
You can read about how it works here:
Meeting Observation & Recommendations
This is a fast way to see what’s actually getting in the way, and find out what to change next.
If you’re accountable for delivery and feel like agile should be helping more than it is, this might be worth a look.
