The Danger of Back-to-Back Meetings

The Danger of Back-to-Back Meetings

In this latest episode, Kate explains how nonstop meetings crowd out strategic thinking, leaving leaders reactive, exhausted, and “behind” despite being fully booked. A leader’s job is to spot patterns, join dots, see risks early, and make considered commercial and cultural decisions - all requiring real mental space. Never having time to think means teams drift and leaders stay permanently reactive.
