Meetings are the backbone of modern knowledge work, but they are often misused in reporting or stroking the ego of authoritarian leaders. Meetings have become the focus themselves, rather than what they can produce.
In fact up to 39% of working time is spent in meetings, accumulating to around 7 years of our life, while 94% of those meetings are opened without a set agenda or follow up.
In essence, meetings are just a tool, and that’s how we should use it.
In the ideal case, meetings are encounters that improve the thinking and understanding of every participant, arrive at conclusions and concrete activities, and enable better decision making. Not just looking in the rear-view mirrors.
This whitepaper outlines Fingertip’s solution for effective meeting management, from planning to closing. It guides you through the lifecycle from creating the agenda and inviting the participants to running the meeting and ensuring accountable follow up.

Microsoft Teams has taken its place as a necessity among Microsoft’s office tools for many people. Teams is now actively used by more than 270 million people, up from 20 million in 2019. Every day, 200 million people take part in Teams online meetings, solidifying its status as the business standard for virtual and global teams, and hybrid work environments. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella underlines the impact of such platforms, saying ‘Teams has become as important as the internet browser or an operating system.’
However, the platform is still far from ideal in providing the best employee experience from a leadership perspective, and its potential remains largely underutilized. Leadership in Teams falls short on strategic execution, operational productivity, and technology adoption. Fingertip has been designed to help leaders by providing innovative ways to solve these issues in one application.
Microsoft Teams is a brilliant platform for online communication and collaboration. It does not function so well, however, in keeping track of your long term goals, commitments and activities. Messages drown in the channel feeds and we spent a lot of hours looking for information.
