Starting meetings late is a common issue

Meetings starting late and running long can cause significant time wastage that accumulates over time, impacting productivity. Having clearly designated start and end times for meetings, along with avoiding back-to-back scheduling, can help mitigate this problem. Initiating meetings promptly even if not all attendees are present sets a positive tone and discourages tardiness, ultimately fostering a culture of punctuality and respect for everyone's time.
