[quote=Anonymous]I'm going to pile on for "rude". Doesn't seem to stop anyone, though. And I understand the temptation, especially in big meetings where a small group will head off on a tangent of interest only to themselves. But there's really to way to excuse being so blatantly uninterested in what your colleagues are saying. OP, I think that perhaps you need to cut back on meetings. Surely you can get an intern or a program assistant to take notes for you. I once had a boss who would come in for the last 15 minutes of team meetings (functional teams, that is, each with its own director who reported to her). Everyone knew this was the plan and structured meetings to be prepared to ask her their questions or present the issues that needed her attention at the end of the meeting. And she was completely engaged during those 15 minutes, whereas if she had been sitting through the whole technical discussion, she wouldn't have had much to add. [/quote]
