I strongly wish that you had written it several years ago ….. as I lived through this for a few years at a former Fortune top 30 global company. All top executives should pay heed to your article!

As a senior VP of this company I attended, on average, 3 – 6 meetings a day. After I while I just brought a sketch pad, as did 90% of the other participants. I became so bored that I resigned, as did most of the other meeting participants. Within 2 years this very old, long established company was defunct. Due to a lack of leadership, who were all attending meetings.

Your article really hit home with me. Thank you, thank you, and thank you again.
