Group meetings waste time — my interview with Christian McCarrick

(written by lawrence krubner, however indented passages are often quotes). You can contact lawrence at: lawrence@krubner.com

Christian McCarrick is CTO at Global Tel*Link and he has also created the SimpleLeadership podcast. SimpleLeadership is designed for both new and experienced software & technology managers who want to build high-performing teams, better motivate & mentor their employees, reduce attrition and advance their career. It is for people who want to go beyond just being a manager and become a true leader.

McCarrick interviewed me a week ago, and we spoke about the issues of productivity, and especially how group meetings can waste people’s time. Check it out:
