We can all agree that meetings suck. ... Sorry, but there's more to this post! Unfortunately, if we don't intentionally design our meetings, we give up our only way to push back against individualizing forces in our workplaces that undermine our agency with shitty, thoughtless automation.

Sense-making is only productive when it is collective

The "optimization" you achieve by automating interfaces between colleagues is always going to be self-defeating.

1. Rachael Dietkus, in part of her design work, stresses that systems are relationship networks. Decisions are made by people. 2. What is it that Agile calls things? Ceremonies? Ugh. Sounds like "we do these things because we do these things."
