Reconnecting Meetings to the Business Activity

With studies suggesting that business professionals now spend 40-50% of their time in meetings you would assume that we are perfecting the art of meeting. However, a closer look at the data says otherwise. It is estimated that half of all meetings are unproductive and 25% of any given meeting is spent on irrelevant issues. This paper looks at the problem from a technology perspective and discusses how next generation technologies can assist in materially increasing productivity not only of meetings, but of the corporate dynamic of studying data and coming up with actionable conclusions.
