How do we get less meetings and more done?

like

Ditto. I think it’s just a generic go to when you have someone leading or talking in a meeting and they don’t know where to go next. “Let’s setup a meeting with Joe to talk through this in more detail” or “let’s connect with Bob to learn more”.

Or maybe just send an email, which forces you to at least think and put your thoughts in writing instead of BSing in another meeting.

People no longer want to do work or solve problems themselves. They want to talk it in circles until it becomes irrelevant. There are few who grab the bull by the horns and get it done. If you are one of these few, we thank you.

My firm has a collections budget (80% of your billable rate x 1850 hours) and an hourly budget that must be met in order to be eligible for a bonus. The firm cares very little about originations and will reward someone for making their collections over someone who brings in new work. I missed my collection budget due to some odd timing with a client, but originated more than all my peers so no bonus for me. I’ve been at this same mid level firm for 9 years and it’s all I know. Is this normal??
