Man, if you think staff meetings are counter-productive the the private sector, try a staff meeting in a place that doesn't need to make a profit (such as an academic/research department). Jeez.
Half the people don't show 'cause they're "not in", it takes 30min just to figure out the politics of "who's running the meeting", every topic includes rabbit trails like "oh, while we're on the subject of website design, I've been meaning to talk to you about redeveloping our GIS curriculum for next semester", plus most of the time is spent trying to unravel the ramblings of the self-appointed administrators who don't carry any technical expertise but felt the need to say something anyway.
