Work meetings are giving ‘hanging’ employees, research reveals: ‘This adversely affects our productivity’

Forget the happy clock – are meetings that are giving the workers a hangover.

An article recently published on Harvard Business Review revealed that people may experience “hanging meeting” after finishing an unable meeting.

One study found that more than 90% of employees suffered from “meeting meeting”, defined as “a period of concentration, motivation or reduced productivity after a bad meeting”.

“A Hangover meeting is the idea that when we have a bad meeting, we just do not leave it on the door. He stands with us and adversely affects our productivity,” Steven Rogelberg, a professor at UNC Charlotte and the author of “Surprise Surprises Science,” explained to CBS News.

Irritated workers often continue to reflect and reproduce what went wrong – in their heads and with their colleagues.

Who is not related to their associates for the disappointments of work?

While these ventilation sessions may feel necessary to overcome your work day, this “co-rrumination” can continue to spread negative impacts beyond the cooler water conversation.

More than a quarter (28%) of workplace meetings left employees with continuous negative effects.

The most common causes of “bad” meetings were reported:

• Irrevance of the topics discussed (59%)
• The absence of a clear agenda or objectives (59%)
• Poor time management (53%)
• Lack of active results or tracking (48%)
• Uneven participation (39%) or low (38%)
• Ineffective ease (30%)

For those who feel a “hanging meetings”, Rogelberg recommends focusing your next Venice session with your best job on how to manage your situation and frustration – instead of screaming.

“Talk to your colleague on how to deal with the situation for the future, taking on their thoughts, engaging in making sense, where you are trying to understand, taking different views on what happened only-the types of conversations increase your skills and resistance bad meeting,” Rogelberg said.
