The average manager spends two full days per week consumed in meetings. And if that wasn’t bad enough, 71% of senior managers felt like meetings were unproductive and inefficient.
Meetings that suck aren’t just a waste of time…they also cost companies billions of dollars in lost productivity.
In this episode, we’re exploring how you can redefine meetings in your organization. From getting clear on who can call meetings, training to effectively run and manage group discussions, and how to ensure people add value when they gather together, rather than waste time and energy.
Perry Maughmer believes the world deserves better leadership; that in every human interaction there is the opportunity to either build others up or tear them down; and that leadership is the choice we make in those moments.
These beliefs led Perry to create the Potential Leader Lab. He wanted to offer those who share his beliefs the space and safety to explore transformative ideas, experiment with new behaviors, and evolve into the leaders they were meant to be and that the world needs.
This is a framework he has used again and again with his Vistage peer advisory groups and companies like Turn-Key Tunneling, Convergint, Haughn & Associates, I Am Boundless, Ketchum & Walton, LSP Technologies, and Ahlum & Arbor.
Perry lives and works on the shores of Buckeye Lake in Ohio, in the mountains of northwest Georgia, and on the beach in Anna Maria, Florida with his amazingly creative wife Lisa. They have 2 rescue dogs and are intermittently visited by their 3 wonderful children throughout the year. Perry & Lisa are living life in crescendo and focused on exploring, experimenting, and evolving their vision of a life they have no desire to retire from.
