To actually help make meetings more productive, I highly recommend the book "The Surprising Science of Meetings: How You Can Lead Your Team to Peak Performance" [1] ("One of the top business books everybody will be reading in 2019" — Business Insider). For a quick summary, watch the author's webinar "The Surprising Science of Meetings: Evidence-Based Insights Leaders Need to Gain a Competitive Advantage" [2].

I spend a lot of time in meetings, as both host/facilitator and guest, and work remotely 99% of the time. We spend so much time in meetings without giving them much thought to designing them.
