With teams under extraordinary pressure in 2026, Elizabeth explains why old meeting habits, misaligned agendas, and unclear accountability are quietly eroding performance, engagement, and results.From rethinking team meetings as engines for decision making, to replacing low value updates with real dialogue, to designing agendas that create space for strategic thinking, this episode offers clear guidance for leaders who want better outcomes without adding more complexity.

Why leadership teams struggle even when individual leaders are strong
How meeting design directly shapes team performance and accountability
What separates productive dialogue from time wasting discussion
How to prepare teams for decisions that actually stick after the meeting ends
