Meeting Fatigue Protocol
Meeting caps, agendas, shorter slots, and buffers between calls to cut video fatigue and protect afternoon focus.
A meeting fatigue protocol caps daily video time, mandates agendas, defaults to twenty-five or fifty minute slots, and requires buffer between blocks for notes and movement. Zoom fatigue is cognitive and social—constant gaze and no sidebar chat drain bandwidth.
Async updates replace status meetings when possible.
