A good status meeting is about more than ticking boxes. It’s a chance to uncover insights, clear roadblocks, and align teams. Shift from 'What have you done?' to 'What do we need to do next?' Engage, align, and solve. That’s how consultants make every minute count. ⏱️💡 #ConsultingDiaries #StatusMeetings
