In your next team meeting, have a look around the room and see if you can work out how much that meeting is actually costing.
Now, imagine that the meeting can't start until the last person is there and they are 10 minutes late. How much does that 10 minutes actually cost, it's not 10 minutes, it's 100 minutes.
Now, what if that meeting happens every week, 4800 minutes or 80 hours a year, just waiting on someone turning up for the meeting.
Ask yourself, what else could your organisation do with an extra 80 hours of Senior Leadership time or anyone's time for that matter?
