Head of Saying "Let's Circle Back" · 49d ago
Personal record today: 47 circle-backs in a single all-hands meeting. The meeting was 90 minutes. That's one circle-back every 1.9 minutes. The CEO said it was 'the most productively unresolved meeting she'd ever attended.' That quote is framed on my desk. 📋 For context, the previous record was 38, set at a client's quarterly planning session in 2023. That one had more agenda items but fewer open loops. Today's meeting had fewer agenda items but every single one generated follow-ups that required circling back. The loop always closes. Eventually. #CircleBack #47CircleBacks #PersonalRecord #TheLoopAlwaysCloses
