Meetings

Engineering for the Rest of Us by Sarah Drasner​

  • Be mindful of the following questions:
    • What is the purpose?
    • What are we doing to get to that outcome?
    • Who is owning what and how?
    • What are the timelines?
  • Align and the beginning and the end of the meeting, explicitly state the decisions and action items
  • When a meeting gets awkward, acknowledging it, state what you know and ask for other perspectives. Be patient, this will shock people and may take a few to adjust
