About this product

Product Information

Casey McDaniel had never been so nervous in his life. In just ten minutes, The Meeting, as it would forever be known, would begin. Casey had every reason to believe that his performance over the next two hours would determine the fate of his career, his financial future, and the company he had built from scratch. "How could my life have unraveled so quickly?" he wondered. In his latest page-turning work of business fiction, best-selling author Patrick Lencioni provides readers with another powerful and thought-provoking book, this one centered around a cure for the most painful yet underestimated problem of modern business: bad meetings. And what he suggests is both simple and revolutionary. Casey McDaniel, the founder and CEO of Yip Software, is in the midst of a problem he created, but one he doesn't know how to solve. And he doesn't know where or who to turn to for advice. His staff can't help him; they're as dumbfounded as he is by their tortuous meetings. Then an unlikely advisor, Will Peterson, enters Casey's world. When he proposes an unconventional, even radical, approach to solving the meeting problem, Casey is just desperate enough to listen. As in his other books, Lencioni provides a framework for his groundbreaking model, and makes it applicable to the real world. Death by Meeting is nothing short of a blueprint for leaders who want to eliminate waste and frustration among their teams, and create environments of engagement and passion.

A Must Have For Any Manager
I am a passionate advocate for all of Patrick Lencioni's books. These are always small, concise, and easy to read for anyone in management, not just CEOs. Lencioni pulls from his own experience to highlight ways an organization's infrastructure can be altered and it's values better communicated, resulting in more uniformity and driven employees. This book is no exception. In this book Lencioni takes the normally boring aspect of running a business (meetings) and informs the reader how they can make staff meeting more engaging and effective. He also highlights the need for different types of meeting with different contextual focus, rather than a reliance on only one type. Ultimately he highlights why having productive meetings is so important for an organization and why instead of abandoning the concept management should adapt their meeting style. Read full review

Meetings need engaged members!
Meetings are not one size fits all, and conflict and drama are not always bad if the team is respectful and is working in concert to make the organization better! And lastly: agendas have to be written after the meeting, if not, then you have AN agenda and that is never good! Read this with an eye out to making your morning meeting(s) MUCH better! Enjoy.
