Are your meetings actually working? Or has your calendar just become a system nobody knows how to switch off?

In this episode, David Green is joined by Rebecca Hinds, Stanford-trained organisational researcher, Head of the Work AI Institute at Glean, and author of Your Best Meeting Ever: 7 Principles for Designing Meetings That Get Things Done.

In this conversation, David and Rebecca discuss:

Why organisations should treat meetings as a product, and what that actually means in practice
The concept of meeting debt, and why calendars accumulate bloat in the same way codebases accumulate technical debt
What a 48-hour calendar cleanse involves, and what typically happens when organisations rebuild their calendars from scratch
The patterns that show up most consistently when mapping how work actually moves between teams
How AI is being used to improve meetings, and the ways it can make dysfunctional meeting culture worse
What the conversation looks like in the room when CHROs start rethinking collaboration for the AI era

The world of work is being rewritten faster than HR systems can keep up. Skills age in months. Roles get redesigned quarter by quarter. CHROs have quietly become AI transformation leads, and the data they need to lead it doesn't exist in any HR system.

That's why the world's most forward-looking enterprises such as HSBC, AMD, T-Mobile, GSK, ServiceNow, Pfizer, have built on TechWolf.

As the data layer for the AI era of work, TechWolf gives enterprises the skills, they need to move faster and lead with confidence. Skills Intelligence, Work Intelligence, and Market Intelligence, in one layer. Visit techwolf.ai.
