a good meeting is: The purpose of the meeting is clear. There’s an agenda (we dive into the complexity of this in a moment). The right people (and the right number of people) are in the room. Not too many people where communication is overly complicated, and not too few people where those you need to move forward aren’t there. There’s some order. People aren’t dropping in and out, talking over each other, or being generally inconsiderate. There’s a clear decision, outcome, and next steps at the end.
