Major Problem

1. Being Chairman does not mean that you arrive at a meeting totally unprepared and wait for the secretary to give you everything you need. Then you’re not a Chairman. You’re a man in a chair. A wheel chair. And even that is an utter insult to Stephen Hawkings.

2. 3 hour long meetings are a waste of time. By this I mean that the previous 6 meetings I was in is a waste of time. People start falling asleep after half an hour if they are not really engaged. The engaged ones fall asleep after an hour because of lethargy.

3. A meeting requires the presence of everyone in the committee. So during a meeting, only issues that require the attention of everyone should be discussed. Leave one to one discussions to emails. Leave small subcommittee discussions to the office. There is no point in a meeting when 70% of the committee is chattering away while you squabble with the person beside you.

4. I coordinate a team thrice as large as this committee for 5 months and I have not held one single meeting yet. Two skype conversations and that’s all. You have held 6 meetings and achieved little more than nothing.

5. Again, come prepared. If you don’t know shit, you don’t know shit. Blaming your secretary does not make you look any better.

6. It is your event. You keep track of your stuff. There is no excuse for you not knowing who is doing what and how he is doing.

7. "Where was I just now" is a stupid question to ask during meetings.

8. Do not waste my time.
