The average burnout rate across industries sat at a shocking 60.2% rate as of October 2022 – in big part because employees report not having enough time for focused work on their tasks around everything else in their calendar. Unfortunately, juggling a jam-packed meeting calendar isn’t just a simple inconvenience for today's employees. The busiest professionals, with 15 or more meetings a week, attend an average of 39.3 meetings – a 37.9% increase since February 2020. Between one-on-one meetings, team meetings, and client or customer meetings, just the average professional sits through 25.6 meetings every week. Whether you’re working at the office, fully remote, or in a hybrid work model – your calendar is likely (generously) peppered with meetings.
