(no subject)

I was in my former President-CEO's office earlier this week for a co-worker's birthday celebration. We commented on what a waste it was to have all that space and decoration with no one using the office except for special occasions. But I was more concerned with the side cover of a book I noticed on the way out, saying Death by Meeting.

Google tells me that the book's full title is Death by Meeting: A Leadership Fable...About Solving the Most Painful Problem in Business. That's a relief. I thought it was a how-to book on bringing about death by meeting.

...Wait a minute. The title doesn't say what the most painful problem in business is. Maybe I was right the first time.

Maybe it's just as well that the presumable owner of the book has retired.
