Не все советы работают
Несмотря на то, что книга "Смерть от совещаний" написана легко и с юмором, я не могу сказать, что все советы автора оказались для меня полезными. Некоторые рекомендации кажутся слишком общими и не учитывают специфику различных компаний и команд. Например, не всегда возможно изменить формат совещания, если в компании уже сложилась определённая культура. Кроме того, некоторые идеи Ленсиони требуют значительных усилий для реализации, и не все руководители готовы к таким изменениям. Тем не менее, книга всё же заставила меня задуматься о том, как можно улучшить свои встречи, и я нашёл несколько полезных идей. В целом, это неплохое чтение, но не стоит ожидать от него волшебного решения всех проблем.
