Keywords: child neglect, infant deaths, parenting capacity, sleeping behaviour, threshold criteria, voice of the child The goal of every meeting is to get alignment or clarification. Each time we fail in this mission, we set in motion a colossal wave of human activity. It begins with the executives and transfers across the organization as direct reports scramble to figure out what everyone else is doing and why.

Death by Meeting: A Leadership Fable: Library Edition

Recommendations include: consider developing criteria for professionals meetings to be formally integrated into local child protection procedures to provide a multi-agency reflective space to consider risk and support for families; develop a multi-agency substance misuse strategy to provide clarity on the impact of different substance misuse, particularly cannabis on parenting capacity and guidance for practitioners in relation to escalation and effective interventions; consider how to support practitioners to manage the interface with one plan arrangements for children with special/additional needs within early help arrangements; consider the learning and undertake a multiagency self-assessment and any resulting actions from the national panel's thematic review ‘The myth of invisible men’ (2021) to support practitioners in improving the engagement, involvement and assessment of male carers; and consider the learning from this review and the national panel's review ‘Child protection in England’ (2022) to ensure that the views of family members are always considered in assessments of risk.

Learning includes: the risks posed by neglect; the impact of neglect on the children’s lived experience; family dynamics and the role of the fathers in the lives of children; the impact of domestic abuse on children; understanding the risk of physical harm within a family, especially with regards to ‘physical chastisement’; the risks of substance misuse within the family; the impact of Covid-19 restrictions; use of language by services, practitioners and managers. Recommendations include: review and update the practice guidance for assessment, management and referral on bruising in non-mobile babies; review and update the professional disagreement and escalation policy; partner agencies consider introducing a requirement that individual agencies produce impact chronologies for all child protection conferences; and request that agencies work together to develop systems that allow identification (possibly via a trigger or alert) when there are repeated injuries on a child or young person. Meetings are not inherently boring. They are dynamic interactions discussing topics relevant to our livelihoods. We make them dull because we eliminate the one element that makes any human activity interesting: conflict. We can sit through a 2 hour movie without being bored because we get absorbed in the conflict. In any organization with thinking people, there will be differences of opinion on matters of strategy, organization, etc. Good leaders must mine the staff for conflicting opinions and grant permission to engage in honest debate. Once all the opinions are on the table, a decision can be made and then the staff must accept the final verdict and move forward as a team. Meanwhile, let’s dive right into the solution, with the Model for Effective Meetings presented in the book:Progress review: routine reporting of critical information or metrics (revenue, expenses, customer satisfaction, inventory etc. ) Point is to get into the habit of reviewing progress relating to key metrics for success, but not every metric available (4-6 max).

Casey has a lovely wife and kids, he’s a good neighbor, and he’s a regular churchgoer. He’s an easy person to respect, and his employees like him as a person—they just don’t like him as a boss.

Our management team implemented the strategies we learned from "Death By Meeting" at the start of the year, and I must admit, in my experience, we are not only tighter as a team, we are more productive and efficient at getting things done.
