And how many times did you talk and talk, without any concrete results?

And afterwards, everyone assumed someone would do the tasks proposed, but no one actually did them?

What's missing is effective group decision making. So that everyone knows what is decided, feels involved in the process, and knows who will execute the task. Join this training and start your journey to get rid of useless meetings once and for all!
