SPOS #267 – Fix Your Meetings With Al Pittampalli

Welcome to episode #267 of Six Pixels Of Separation – The Twist Image Podcast. Several weeks ago, I published a Blog post titled, Your Meetings Suck. The Blog post was based on a conversation I had with Al Pittampalli. Pittampalli is the author of Read This Before Our Next Meeting (published by Seth Godin‘s The Domino Project powered by Amazon). It’s a great book that looks at one of the biggest problem facing the corporate world on a daily (and hourly) basis: death by meeting. Pittampalli is on a mission to change that. He believes that meetings can (and should) be used in much more constructive ways. I’m not sure about you, but I couldn’t agree more. If you spend your days locked in meeting after meeting, this Podcast is for you. Enjoy the conversation…
