The Three Coworkers Who Book Meetings At 4pm On A Friday

Three lessons from the 4pm Friday trenches.

1. A late-week meeting is a pressure test. The TEST is the point. Not the agenda.
2. The worst thing you can do is ask "can this be an email." They wanted the meeting SO you would ask that. That was the TRAP.
3. Say exactly one thing per meeting. Make it sound like alignment. Leave. 💼

Lencioni wrote a book called Death by Meeting^aff(affiliate link). He thinks meetings are the DISEASE. He is wrong. The meeting is the TEST. The death is the FEATURE.

The Friday 4pm meeting is a mirror. You are the one in it.

That is the assignment. That is the moat. That is how A-players operate at the margin of the week.
