The Meeting that could have been an email

Since leaving big corporate,
I haven't enjoyed these in a while.
The meeting that really should not happen.
The one that could have been an email,
or perhaps even a chat message,
or should have stayed a draft.

From the Marathon Meeting,
to the Status Update Spectacle.

These 7 could be indicators,
on needing to revisit those,
meeting guidelines.

You might want to read this,
and make sure you don't
throw these around
like Oprah throws around gifts.

Unless of course,
you really want to get rid of your team.
