Description

Meetings are one of the most consistent touchpoints of your team culture, so why are so many of them ineffective? Make Your Meetings Matter helps leaders redesign their meetings from energy-drainers into alignment-builders. With a practical, no-fluff approach, Scott De Long, Ph.D., shows you how to make every meeting worth attending.

Whether you’re leading weekly team huddles, 1-on-1s, cross-functional check-ins, or leadership standups, this book provides clear frameworks to help you lead meetings that matter.

Inside, you’ll discover:

  • Why most meetings fail, and the three simple fixes that change everything
  • How to structure agendas that guide discussion without stifling it
  • Tips to increase participation, especially from quiet or hesitant voices
  • The role of psychological safety in productive dialogue
  • How to reduce unnecessary meetings while increasing alignment
  • How to set expectations, assign action items, and follow through consistently

 

You’ll also explore how meeting habits reflect deeper leadership patterns, and how improving one improves the other.

Whether you’re rebuilding a broken meeting culture or designing one from scratch, this book helps you create meeting structures that reinforce clarity, commitment, and trust. Because when done right, meetings don’t waste time, they make every minute count.
