So, if someone else is holding a status meeting, but it's clearly not as organized as you suggest it should be, is there anything I can do as a participant to guide it in the direction you suggest?
We have meetings similar to what you describe for our formalized projects led by project managers, yet the adhoc groups doing less formal projects tend to degenerate in a series of wasteful meetings.
I'm still trying to find a balance for how many of what kind of meetings to hold for any given project (just like the rest of us, I suppose).

Anyone have ideas?
