Section 1 of 40%
Area 01
Purpose and preparation
How meetings are designed before they happen determines most of what occurs inside them.
Question 01
When a meeting is called, the purpose and expected outcome are clearly stated in advance.
Question 02
The people in the room are the right people for the purpose of that specific meeting.
Question 03
Participants arrive having read or prepared what was needed to make the meeting productive.
Area 02
Decisions and outcomes
A meeting that produces no decision or clear next action is a meeting that consumed resources without return.
Question 04
By the end of a meeting, it is clear what was decided and who is responsible for each action.
Question 05
Decisions made in meetings are actually implemented. The gap between what is decided and what happens is small.
Question 06
The people with the authority to make a decision are present when the decision needs to be made.
Area 03
Leadership and dynamics
The quality of what gets said — and what doesn't — is shaped by how leadership shows up in the room.
Question 07
In meetings, people say what they actually think, including when it contradicts the dominant view.
Question 08
The most senior person in the room does not dominate the conversation or close down alternatives early.
Question 09
Recurring meetings are reviewed periodically and cancelled or redesigned when they no longer serve a purpose.
Area 04
System and cost
The meeting system as a whole — its volume, rhythm and economic weight — is either visible to leadership or it is not.
Question 10
Leadership has a clear picture of how much time the organization spends in meetings each week.
Question 11
After a meeting, there is a reliable way to track what was decided and whether it was acted on.
Question 12
If you had to estimate, what percentage of meeting time in your organization generates real value — decisions made, problems solved, alignment reached?
