• 
  

  Have your meetings standing.

  
  
  
• 
  

  Give the people in your meeting the permission to walk around.

  
  
  
• 
  

  Request everybody who’s speaking in the meeting to stand on one leg to make sure that they will be brief and to the point.

  
  
  
• 
  

  Be careful of the amount of screentime that you’re getting particularly in the latter part of the day and certainly in the evening.

  
  
  
• 
  

  Vary the location of your meeting. You can go to a different room or have the meeting in the garden.
  
  

  
  
  

Leanne said:

“It’s really good discipline to have people not only exercise brevity but also make sure they’ve prepared and they’re to the point.

“It’s much easier to keep a meeting short and to the point when people are standing up because it’s so long that they’ll move from one hip to the other.”
