Ingvar Kamprad, the founder of IKEA, firmly opposed unnecessary meetings, advocating for brief, focused discussions that promote productivity and efficiency in the workplace.
A survey by Korn Ferry revealed that 67% of employees feel excessive meeting times hinder their ability to perform at their best, emphasizing the need to cut back.
Studies indicate that executives now spend nearly 23 hours a week in meetings—a drastic increase from previous decades—showing how meeting culture has intensified.
Kamprad's philosophy reminds us that reducing meeting frequency and length may lead to a more effective use of time and better outcomes at work.
