We run some really big cross functional meetings and we’ve used Dropbox Capture to separate the agendas for these meetings into two - an offline agenda and a live agenda. In the offline agenda we asked project leads to record short Dropbox Capture videos to give the latest status on their projects. These form the pre-reading for the meeting. In the live agenda, we focus on the topics that require discussion and decisions, and on live inputs and debate. We also leave time for the discussion on any of the Dropbox Capture updates as well. This means we’re able to be more efficient with the time in these meetings to focus on those live discussion topics and we’ve actually been able to reduce the frequency of these meetings as a result.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;

We’ve done this with some of our senior meetings and we’ve gotten really positive feedback and we run a test before the meeting to see if we have sufficient updates and discussion topics and if we don’t we check in with the stakeholders to make sure they don’t have specific topics they want to bring to the table and if not, we cancel the meeting and replace it with an a&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN class=" author-d-1gg9uz65z1iz85zgdz68zmqkz84zo2qovvz89zz65zz71zyz76zynz90zz79z25z74zz68z37z66zz83zz81z2z85zg5z85zz88zpz90zz66zz75zf6"&gt;&lt;I&gt;-&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN class=" author-d-1gg9uz65z1iz85zgdz68zmqkz84zo2qowz81zz66z28pz68zu5ycwz89zgz80zuz83z5z89zz86zbz72zz78zz75zz89zz90zz87zz66zz70zmuz75z"&gt;&lt;I&gt;sync update via Dropbox Capture and we send it out for stakeholders to review. This means we are able to produce a 5 minute update for them and they get 30 minutes back in their day.
