subject: Meeting Magic: Facilitation & Planning Skills For Meeting Productivity - Webinar By Trainhr [print this page] Overview : How many hours a day do you spend in meetings? How many of those hours are wasted because people go on and on, interrupt one another, havent prepared adequately, or just refuse to participate? Study after study has found that over 50 percent of most meeting time is wasted. More than 90 percent of the attendees admit to daydreaming during the meeting, 73 percent busy themselves doing other work, and about 39 percent actually fall asleep!
