You defer the meeting and ask. Is there something đspecific đ I can help you with. Keep saying specific until they fold.
If I feel like a meeting isnât necessary I usually just ask a lot of questions
1. What do we plan on talking about?
2. What do we plan on accomplishing?
3. Is there any prep work we need to do?
Usually itâll make the person who made the meeting question themselves if thereâs really a point of the meeting at all, often theyâll cancel it or realize they can just ask what they need in Slack
Just clearly ask - do we need a meeting for this
