Get participants prepared before meeting

Every participant should be notified before a meeting, make sure that they are clear not only the purpose of the meeting, but to be clear about their roles in the meeting. Especially in remote meetings, members require more time to get themselves organized, at the same time, with less patience. Some business leaders have set clear rules and cultures on meetings held. For example, Amazon's CEO Jeff Bezos requires narrative reports written before meetings. Participants are then given time to get the full picture of the meeting and are better prepared which shows significant effects in shortening wasted time.
