Let's take another look at the things that will be discussed:

When selecting topics, you should make sure that the points to be discussed are really relevant to EVERYONE.

If there are points that are not of interest to all participants, you can split the meeting into two parts.

- First discuss the topics that are important for everyone.

- Afterwards, only those who really need to be present for the rest of the topics remain in the room.

This will contribute to everyone's efficiency and satisfaction.

The agenda item “Other business” should be deleted without substitution. Otherwise, you run the risk of being surprised by topics that can destroy your strict planning and time discipline.

Incidentally, you can even save time by holding a meeting standing up, because: It's easier to think standing up! This means you need less time for your meetings. Office containers or shelves at practical height can be used to support yourself or take notes. Your discussions may be more dynamic when standing and the participants will be more engaged. Because standing makes you alert.

Depending on the topic, you may even be able to move your meeting outside in good weather.

After all, walking also helps the brain at work.
