How to Have Effective Meetings [Infographic]

Oct. 23, 2013
As an EHS professional, you probably are involved in the planning of many meetings. Has anyone ever offered suggestions for making them more effective?

Did you know that about 90 percent of workers say they regularly daydream during meetings and as many as 6 in 10 say they take fake notes to appear as if they’re paying attention?

This infographic from Bolt Insurance explains how meetings become ineffective and how managers can make sure the time their employees spend in conference rooms is valuable.

Here are a few facts from the graphic:

  • 3 billion: Number of meetings each year in the U.S. workforce (11 million per day).
  • 63 percent: Meetings without a formal agenda.
  • $75 million: Annual loses per year due to inefficient meetings.
