“Broken Meetings (and how you’ll fix them)” from Merlin Mann on Vimeo.

The above is a recording of a presentation by Merlin Mann (of, amongst other things, 43 Folders productivity site fame) on how awful meetings are, and how to try to make them better. Merlin comes to this  from a creative technical worker point of view, and points out how hard it can be for people doing creative, technical work to get back into the flow of what they were doing if they have been interrupted by a meeting.

It’s a full presentation, so quite long, but well worth watching.
