Take the meat out of meetings

Press conference on meat rationing. J.H. Westing (left), assistant director of Office of Price Administration's (OPA) Food Rationing Division, and Leon Bosch, head of Point Control Development show reporters, at press conference held March 20, papier-mache meat cuts to illustrate point values. I have used this image to illustrate the message take the meat out of meetings

Please, take the meat out of meetings. Then you can say, no animal died in the making of this decision.

Some meetings are pointless. Don’t add to this pointlessness the death of the animal in your sandwich.

Some meeting reach meaningful outcomes. These are never enhanced by having meat on the table.

Take the meat out meetings, workshops, seminars and training.
