What does a meeting cost?
Take the hourly rate of each person in the room,
add them together and multiply it times the
number of hours you are meeting. It adds up
fast!
Take a firm where you have shareholders,
administrative assistants and everyone in
between in a meeting for an hour. The average
hourly salary in the room is $100/hour.
$100/hour X 32 = $3200.
$3200.00
FOR A ONE-HOUR MEETING!
Adding to the cost is the fact that meetings are
time consuming and time is money. Everyone has
a shortage of time so it’s imperative to find
solutions to make the meetings that you have as
effective and concise as possible so that you
may go back to the business at hand.
You have to ask yourself; “Is it worth
it?” Didn’t think so.
