Rebecca Hinds: Built for Efficiency- A Bold Approach to Meetings

Send us Fan MailAbout This EpisodeThis episode rethinks meetings from the ground up with organizational behavior expert Dr. Rebecca Hinds. Instead of accepting packed calendars as productive, the conversation reframes meetings as products that should be intentionally designed to create decisions, healthy debate, development, and real progress. Using product design principles, you’ll learn how to cut meeting overload, move status updates to async tools, and use simple structures and signals to measure whether a meeting is truly worth the time. The result is a bold new way to collaborate: fewer, shorter, sharper meetings that improve focus, decision quality, and human connection at work. About Rebecca HindsRebecca Hinds is the author of Your Best Meeting Ever.
