A meeting with more than six people in it can only hope to achieve one thing – to arrange more meetings.

* A huge supposition on my part, that 1. I’m going to come up with more than these ( It’s kind of like those bands that release “Best Of, Volume 1” – it’s just asking for trouble), and 2. that I’ll come up with so many that some kind of classification system is required.

    This is probably related to another universal law of business: the amount of time it takes to get out of the office and go to lunch is exponentially w.r.t. the number of people going to lunch together.
