LTYM - The nine-hour meeting

Letters to a Young Manager

The nine-hour meeting, #535
LTYM >

Please note that this letter is in-process; the following are my notes

Dear Adam,

***

From story #46: "One of my colleagues told a story of having to travel four hours to a hotel on the coast in the Dominican Republic for a one-hour conference call on a pay phone and then drive four hours back to his office, a nine-hour day for one meeting!"

When we connected his office and installed a VOIP phone, it became a one-hour meeting--
a 9:1 savings in time; that’s what technology can do!

***

Sincerely yours,
Ed
