Cut calendar clutter in 60 seconds.

Our tools are used by organisations around the world.

The ‘Do we even need this meeting?’ checklist is a free tool that helps leaders cut calendar clutter and reclaim focus in under 60 seconds. Useful for managers across industries – from fast-paced startups to public sector teams and global organisations – it empowers teams to protect their time, prioritise what matters and say no to meetings that don’t move the needle. It comes with two checklists – one for organisers and another for invitees – and a set of bonus scripts for pushing back on low-value meetings you’re invited to.

60-second checklists for both meeting organisers and invitees.

For organisers.

  • Decide if a meeting is truly necessary – or if a quick chat, e-mail or solo decision will do
  • Set up the sessions that remain with clear purpose, tight agendas and the right people
  • Close every meeting with owners, deadlines and key messages nailed down

For invitees.

  • Test every invite against purpose, priority and your own bandwidth
  • Speak up during the meeting, leave with crystal-clear actions and lock them in fast
  • Bonus push-back scripts so you can say no – politely, firmly, professionally

The ‘Do we even need this meeting?’ checklist makes it possible to:

  • Build a culture of fewer, better meetings
  • Make jam-packed calendars a thing of the past
  • Say no to low-value meetings with confidence and grace
  • Carve out space to focus on what really matters
  • Clear the mental clutter and make room to think
