Our industrial society embraces scalable efficiency. This post is one in a series of perspectives by presenters and participants in the 7th Global Drucker Forum. As here’s a third paradox: digital technology has intensified the quest for scalable efficiency and undermined our humanity while at the same time opening up the possibility of a new renaissance of the imagination that can help us recapture our humanity. We humans are a paradoxical species.

It is generally accepted that efficiency represents the optimal, aspirational state for any market. Efficient markets, which feature many buyers and sellers and perfect information flowing between them, determine the “right price” and hence allocate society’s resources optimally. The shadow of an efficient market is increased price volatility — quite the opposite of what we expect from efficient markets.

The problem with most meetings is that meeting leaders and participants do not think of them as places to do productive work. An efficiency mindset prevails. How to get through the agenda as quickly and efficiently as possible becomes the driving force behind many meetings. Guest Post by Dick Axelrod.

Our research on productivity improvement shows high correlation of improved productivity with the efficiency and effectiveness of meetings. Hopefully those will be minimal because a meeting is not the most efficient way to simply convey knowledge.

While this may feel easy and efficient, it’s often a waste of people’s time and does not tap into the creative potential of the team. Selecting topics that invite participation, i.e., a problem to be solved, is far more engaging that “informational” topics. Learn how to use logistics to encourage great participation and remove barriers. A lot of meeting leaders think they know how to “run” a meeting.
