The Art of the Huddle How to run a prompt, productive, and painless morning meeting.
| November 19, 2007 |  View for printing |
Every weekday at 9:30 a.m. sharp, the executive team at Bishop-Wisecarver, a Pittsburg, California, manufacturing company, files into the boardroom. They stand around the table; no sitting allowed. Then rat-a-tat-tat--each fires off a brief synopsis of the items on his or her frontmost burner. If the controller reports trouble with a vendor, president Pamela Kan promises to intercede. If the sales director says a client has requested a custom product, the team quickly decides whether it's worth pursuing. Ten minutes later all are back in the office armed with the information necessary to barrel efficiently through their days.
