Talking about

Too many meetings are a mess.
One of the problems: different people working/thinking different ways.
The action-oriented always trying to jump to end points and solutions whilst … the systems-thinkers are still looking for cause and effects and how all the pieces link (or don’t) … the risk averse staring down the down sides … knit pickers worrying every detail before it even makes it to the whiteboard … and the muddle-through-ers are off in a corner getting on with things on their own.
What you really want … a clear and shared idea of what we’re talking about, and how. What kind of a meeting is it, who needs to be there, who doesn’t, what’s the objective for this specific meeting, is it big picture or small, who needs to prepare and what must they do.
To run a good meeting, keep everyone neatly on the same page.
