Love this! Corollary: when you have too many meetings, that’s easy to notice. When you don’t have enough meetings, that’s harder to notice.

I’m in the process of carefully adding meetings and process to our small team of 6 (we had a PM from a large company drop in a few years ago and haphazardly add a bunch of process, and it didn’t really help).

We’re fully remote and have a daily huddle and, on average, 1 hour of meetings a week. It turns out this isn’t enough. So far, each bit of communication we’ve added has resulted in better outcomes and higher morale because we feel more like a team.
