Meeting Planning 101: The Art of Not Firing Each Other

Objective: Build a team that doesn't hate each other.

Step 1: Choose a meeting location with a good coffee-to-deal ratio.

Step 2: Plan an activity that involves trust falls, trust falls, and more trust falls. (Don't worry, they're not as painful as they sound.)

Step 3: Prepare for the inevitable "I had a good idea, but it was already taken" moments.

Remember, it's all about the team-building. Unless you're a startup, then it's all about the free snacks.

Step 4: Plan for the post-meeting "I'm starving" moments.

Step 5: Pray for a miracle.
