Meetings Kinda Suck

The fastest way to fix your business might be your meetings

Because that’s where alignment, accountability, and execution either happen—or don’t.

Most teams accept bad meetings as part of the job. The calendar fills up, conversations drift, and nothing really moves forward. Over time, it becomes normal. It shouldn’t be.

This book challenges the way you think about meetings—and gives you a system to turn them into one of the most valuable tools in your business.

Synopsis

“This meeting could have been an email.”

If you’ve ever had this exact thought, then welcome to the club. Meetings are everywhere. They’re on your calendar right now, stacked back-to-back. And if you’re honest, you’d cancel at least half of them if you had the option.

The problem isn’t just that people meet too much; it’s that most meetings don’t accomplish anything. They’re hour-long exercises in futility where everyone is talking past each other until time runs out. Bad meetings come at a cost. They kill morale and send the message that this company doesn’t know what it’s doing.

Kris Snyder knows that Meetings Kinda Suck. But they don’t have to. By applying his proven strategies and using EOS® tools, you have the power to fix the way your organization approaches meetings. Let Kris show you how to:

“Start using meetings as the growth engine they’re supposed to be.”

“Kris doesn’t miss: the meeting isn’t the problem, the person running it is. After 24 years in the military and scaling Hunt A Killer to 8 figures, I’ve sat in more soul-crushing meetings than I care to count. Meetings Kinda Suck gives you the no-BS framework to stop wasting your team’s time and start using meetings as the growth engine they’re supposed to be. If you’re serious about building something that scales, read this before your next weekly sync.”

“If your team is serious about winning, read this book.”

“Most meetings waste time because no one is willing to say what needs to be said. Kris Snyder cuts through the nonsense and shows leaders how to turn meetings into places where real problems get solved. If your team is serious about winning, read this book.”

“Knowing when to kill a meeting is invaluable.”

“Practical tips mixed with how-tos make this a worthwhile book for any manager. Being a big fan of EOS, it felt good to see all the problems and chuckholes we are avoiding by following the L10 meeting strategy. Two points stood out to me. First, knowing when to kill a meeting is invaluable. Lastly, the book could be titled “Why Visionaries Need to Shut Up!” I have seen both work well for me.”

Michael Schroeder | Founder and President of Roundstone
