“Meeting Hangovers”

If you’ve got a meeting coming up, here’s something to look forward to, as we head into a new work week.  . . . Harvard Business Review posted a bunch of stats on how work meetings can give you a “hangover” . . . a “Meeting hangover”. A term used to describe the negative effects of a pointless meeting, or one that’s not run very well. And they can lead to feeling less focused, less motivated, and less productive. 90% of us say it happens at least occasionally. The study found meeting hangovers last an average of two hours, but can last the rest of the day or longer. The top ways to recover from a work meeting include, 1) Taking a short break when it ends, 2) Going for a quick walk, and remember, venting too much, tends to breed negativity. And then your meeting hangover can spread to other people.
