What do your meetings cost?
Every meeting has a cost: people × hours × hourly rate. Most teams have never done the math. You might not like the answer.

The question to ask
For each meeting, ask: "What decision was made or what action was unblocked in the last occurrence?" If the answer is "nothing" for more than two weeks in a row, that meeting is overhead — cancel it and see if anyone notices.
