Have you ever sat in a meeting, feeling time slowly slippHing away, grain by grain, like sand in an hourglass? – Or if you follow the meeting online and start doing other things outside the camera angle. – Asked yourself: “Why am I so bored?”
That’s a great question – and you’re definitely not alone. Chances are, both you and your colleagues are out of sync with the leadership culture. Maybe the team’s competence is higher than the leadership level, or perhaps the tasks at hand require fresh approaches instead of outdated routines.
So, ask yourself: Am I in the wrong meeting? Or is the meeting leadership completely missing the mark?
WRONG MEETING or WRONG TEAM ENERGY?
Let’s break it down. Does the meeting agenda make no sense to you? Maybe it’s because you’re a creative soul who thrives on brainstorming, but you’ve been pulled into operational meetings filled with numbers, reports, and procedures.
That’s like trying to paint a masterpiece with a calculator.
Or the opposite: If your job is all about delivering clear, measurable results, sitting through endless discussions and “loose ideas” can feel both frustrating and chaotic.
