S3E4: Why do your team meetings take so long?


Listen Later

Why do your team meetings take so long — and still achieve so little?


If you are a manager, team leader, or executive, you’ve probably experienced this: one-hour meetings that turn into 90 minutes, recurring weekly calls that feel repetitive, discussions that create activity but no real decisions.

The problem is not time management.

The problem is leadership clarity.

In this episode, executive coach Audrey Jeanrond explains why most meetings fail — and how to redesign them using a powerful structural rule: One Meeting = One Primary Purpose.

You will learn:

  • The 5 essential types of meetings every manager should understand

  • Why mixing alignment, decision-making, knowledge sharing, and culture in one session creates cognitive overload

  • How unclear meeting objectives reduce engagement and slow team performance

  • How to structure decision meetings, alignment meetings, and strategy meetings properly

  • How meeting design reflects your management maturity

If you lead a team, manage managers, or want to improve productivity and decision-making inside your organization, this episode will help you rethink your entire meeting architecture.

This is not about shorter agendas.

It is about stronger leadership structure.

Inside the Manager Bootcamp, we go deeper into:

  • Designing high-performance management systems

  • Structuring decision processes

  • Building managerial clarity

  • Strengthening your leadership architecture before complexity slows growth
