Known Meeting Ethics

A meeting of the minds, where the most important thing is not what you say, but how you say it.

Our meeting ethics is simple: be loud, be proud, and never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever,

Meeting Ethics: The Rules

Our meeting ethics is based on the following rules:

Never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, be on time.
Don't be a meeting interrupter. If the chairperson is speaking, just nod. Don't nod too much, or you might get a meeting ninja star in the back.

Meetings are like a box of chocolates

You never know what you're going to get. Except in our meetings. Here, we have a clear agenda, a clear purpose, and a clear plan.

But, just like a box of chocolates, our meetings come in a variety of shapes and sizes.

Regular meetings: the standard issue meetings you've come to know and love.
Special meetings: the ones that come with extra features, like a free coffee machine, or a meeting ninja star.
Emergency meetings: the ones that pop up out of nowhere, like a surprise box of chocolates with no lid.

Which one will you get? Only time will tell!

Meetings: The Never-Ending Story

The Meeting That Never Started
The Meeting That Never Got Anything Done
