Comment on Ask HN: Meeting overload – how many do you have daily/weekly?

Comments

how much time engineering leaders spend in meetings

Most of it, actually, if I include 1:1 meetings and job interviews too.

Regarding duration: we have an unwritten rule that default meeting for 2-4 people duration is 25 minutes. If I schedule a longer meeting - I should provide a reason.

Meeting longer than an hour and a half are counterproductive, average person just cannot keep concentrating on conversation for that long.
