34 Best Meeting Management Software | Best Meeting Software for Teams

In America, 55 million meetings are conducted on a weekly basis. Whereas the total number of meetings held annually in America surpasses well above a billion. That’s right, America meets a ton!

That means more than a quarter of the total time of an average American working in an organization is spent attending meetings. In 2017 Cisco reported that 37% of employee time is spent in meetings.

How much of that total time spent in meetings is actually productive?

According to a report by Attentiv, 63% of the total meetings held annually are conducted without an agenda. Goes without saying, ill-planned meetings lead to ill-achieved outcomes.

Planning your meeting, managing it, and then conducting it strategically to achieve a solid outcome from the meeting is all part of meeting management.
