Mandate all meeting agendas to include a line: "What problem are we actually solving?" It should be bolded, and if it’s blank, the meeting is cancelled. We spend more time performing work than doing it, especially when founders want "visibility" but can’t say what they’re trying to prove. That kind of clarity doesn’t come from hustle, it comes from shutting up and reading. Half the meetings in Bangalore would die overnight, which honestly, might be the best thing for productivity. And yes, I’d enforce this rule in my own team — especially my own team.
