    We use two tools that have significantly contributed to the management of our meetings: 1. We use a scheduling tool, like neetoCal, which allows us to configure our availability and set limits on the number of meetings per day. 2. Additionally, we use a screen/video recorder, like neetoRecord which allows us to record messages and share them with our teammates, thereby negating the need for a meeting. Both of these tools have helped our team control and avoid unnecessary meetings. These tools have been advantageous for us, as our team comprises diverse members who work from various locations.

    @tsudhishnair Recording tools are indeed a great way to avoid meetings, sometimes a 5 minute recording can save a half an hour meeting.

    👉 Open you calendar and book "quiet time" or simply "busy" for 2-3 hours on the days you need to get things done. That's how I've done it for years and it works just fine for me.

    As someone deeply involved in the startup and tech scene, I completely understand the struggle of endless meetings impacting productivity. One solution that has worked wonders for me is adopting a structured agenda for every meeting, ensuring focused discussions and efficient use of time. Remember, quality over quantity when it comes to meetings!
