Back-to-Back Meetings? Here’s a Simple Fix.

🎯

If you’re constantly jumping from meeting to meeting, when do you actually get work done?

A simple, practical way to fix this: Use the “Shorten All Meetings” setting in Outlook.

What to do:


Go to Outlook settings and turn on “Shorten All Meetings”
30-minute meetings → 25 minutes
60-minute meetings → 50 minutes

Why it works:


Gives you 5-10 minutes to reset between meetings
Creates time for follow-ups, deep work, or a quick break
Reduces fatigue and improves focus

You don’t have to change everything about how you work, just start small. Try it for a week and see if it makes a difference.

Big Change? Start Small.
