I personally use screen and webcam recording tools like Vmaker. Instead of meetings, I can send screen recording videos for feedback and any other workplace communications with my teams and clients. It saves a ton of time too.

Personally my rules are that a meeting should:
* Require an agenda that is shared ahead of time
* Should have someone appointed to run it
With those two conditions met, everyone can know what the meeting is going to be about and it should be hard for it to spiral into loads of unimportant random topics
In terms of frequency I'm less sure - I think it has to be culturally driven but I'm never quite sure what the ideal balance is.
@daniel_hunt4 100%
and as per the frequency, I'd suggest focusing on building processes and culture so people don't need to be guided/supervised/advised too often
Keep small talk to no more than 5 minutes.
Speak only on the point and stop colleagues who are engrossed.
Start changes with yourself and set an example for others.
Do not invite unnecessary people to the meeting.
