We are launching a Meeting Guidelines product tomorrow https://www.producthunt.com/products/Scalar-os so we have been researching the meeting guidelines used by the best companies in the world and this are my favourites:
- If you are not adding value to a meeting, leave. (Spacex & Tesla)
- PowerPoint banned in internal presentations. (Amazon)
- Weekly no meeting day (the most common one, and already proposed by Steve Jobs at Next in 1986!)
- Recurrent meeting yearly cleanup (Shopify and Gitlab). This one is wild, one day all your recurrent meetings are gone.
We have codified these and everything else we have learned about Meeting Guidelines in this playbook https://drive.google.com/file/d/10J6RBLbv2vJ2JavEvFIZik0GZRKmOROb/view?usp=sharing
Do you use meeting guidelines? Do they help you achieve more in your day? Which are your favourites?

Dear, Effective meeting guidelines often lead to better time management, improved collaboration, and a more positive work culture. Your playbook seems comprehensive and aligns well with industry best practices.

We use meetings for discussion, Q&A, and decision-making... the details about the meeting topic are sent before the meeting. After the meeting, a follow-up is sent, with the most important points from it.
@mihajlokovacevic do you use any tool to make sure the details are sent before the meeting and the follow up after it?
