Cameron is known around the world as THE CEO WHISPERER. He is the mastermind behind hundreds of companies' exponential growth. Cameron's built a dynamic consultancy: his clients have included a "Big 4" wireless carrier and a monarchy. 

In this episode, Audrey, Lee and Cameron discuss:

  • Why meetings are awful and what % of professionals lead bad meetings
  • Tips to increase engagement in meetings in COVID-19
  • Timing spacing tips of meetings
  • Accountability and engagement tests upon observing “checked out” behavior in meetings

"It's the one thing that almost everyone in business can agree on. Except it's not actually true. Meetings don't suck, we suck at running meetings. When done right, meetings not only work, they make people and companies better."
