DESCRIPTION:A review of the last 15 years of *_informal_* observation and 
 trial and improvement of 'meeting experience design' in industry revealing
  some clues about:\n* why exactly meetings are decried as taking too much 
 time\, generating ineffective outcomes and reducing energy for the rest of
  day ...\n* what I've learnt that works better (with some ideas for your o
 wn meetings) but...\n* why organisations and teams seem to deeply resist s
 hifting to a different way\n\nFollowed by a discussion about:\n* what the 
 literature can already tell us about group interactions and the system in 
 which meetings take place\, and where the gaps might be\n* the sources of 
 improvement in meeting outcomes - where might research most usefully be di
 rected in search of a shift forward in our knowledge and practice
