RIP: Chat and Youth Are Killing the Meeting

Forbes.com posting: “When he worked for a 50-something chief executive, his schedule was crammed with meetings, taking up as many as 30 hours a week. When a new 20-something CEO arrived, meeting time shrank to about 2 hours a week.”

Chats/IMs/Tweets/etc. are killing meetings in some companies. And this post calls that a bad thing? Hullo? In what universe is that?

Yes, some f2f meetings are super-critical. But the amount of good meetings like that and f**king-horrible-waste-of-time meetings is outrageous. Meetings are dead, long live meetings! (Only the good and useful kind)
