But many meetings aren't anywhere near as productive they're intended to be. And that waste of time is interfering in how much money businesses can make in profit. According to Research Digest , there is $37 billion in yearly salary cost for wasted meetings for U.S. businesses. Imagine what your business could do with a little chunk of that $37 billion.
