Meeting Management
In 2005, the Ayers group reported that in the United States alone, 25 million hours were spent in meetings. Half of those hours were wasted.
With an average American hourly wage of $16 per hour, that is a minimum of $200 million dollars in waste. When you further consider that the average meeting attendant is at the management level or higher, that figure is a very low estimate. The Meeting Management workshop will explore how to reduce waste and make meetings more efficient.
