(M)DAMAGED

A showdown with meeting habits that steal time, focus and job satisfaction

What do no-hats, chaos monkeys, and meeting cards have in common?

They are all on the “agenda” in Bastian Overgaard’s new book MØDELAGT – 7 meeting rules that give you more time, focus and job satisfaction. The book, which will be published on May 5, has already shot straight to the top of the bestseller lists, which says something about its topicality.

In MØDELAGT, Bastian Overgaard takes a much-needed stand against meeting-filled workdays and meeting-filled brains. He focuses on a reality that many of us know all too well: energy-draining meetings that could – and perhaps should – have been an email. The book’s most important point is that effective and good meeting habits are a shared responsibility and crucial for every organization. But it has to be simple, otherwise autopilot wins.

Danes are more meeting-oriented than ever before. It costs the bottom line – and the mental health of employees. In other words, there is a need for a transformation of the meeting culture in many Danish organizations. A culture where fewer – and better – meetings mean more time, greater focus and increased job satisfaction.

In the webinar, Bastian Overgaard - based on his book - will offer suggestions for very basic meeting rules that will strengthen the meeting culture, well-being and competitiveness in your organization.

Who should participate?

This webinar is for anyone who participates in meetings – physical as well as digital. Bastian inspires with cases, research and practical tools to take back your time, increase your creativity and streamline your workday.
