Using the same principles that make video games so engaging and that transformed the numbing assembly line into the dynamic shop floor, the Axelrods outline a flexible and adaptable system used to run truly productive meetings in all kinds of organizations--meetings where people create concrete plans, accomplish tasks, build connections, and move projects forward. They show how to design every aspect of a meeting--from the way you greet people at the beginning to how you sum up at the end--so that real work actually gets done. Those who have adopted this system will never go back. Neither will you.
