Meeting Bingo

Introduction

I got this from a friend working in the government, but it has applied in quite a few companies that

I have worked in. Originally it was named B___S___ Bingo, but I thought this was a better title for

the private sector.

Do you keep falling asleep in

meetings? Here’s something to change

all of that.
