MEETINGS = BRAIN DEAD?


Hahahahalooooo!!!

Sorry, tak sempat nak update my blog for few days.  Sibuk from Monday -recovering the Monday blues- plus meeting, Tuesday, meeting in the morning and in the afternoon, today in the afternoon a short meeting with Boss.  Badan dah sengal sengal, I am not sure if meetings are the cause of it or sebab mmg badan tak berapa sihat.

Someone shared with me an articles on meetings, researchers actually found out that too many meetings can caused a measureable drop in people's IQ??? ha?? seriously??? Is that a reason why I sometimes ter 'accidently' called my big boss, Dr, Ustaz, Hj...instead of Datuk? haaaaa.... 


Here's the article :

Meetings don't just eat up time in the workplace, they actually make groups of people stupider, says new research.

Working in a group makes people perform worse on intelligence tests, as some group members are so anxious about doing well that they 'divert' their brain power towards maintaining their social status in the group.

'You may joke about how committee meetings make you feel brain dead, but our findings suggest that they may make you act brain dead as well,' said Read Montague the study leader at Virginia Tech.

Groups of volunteers showed measurable drops in IQ when asked to perform intelligence tests socially, with the results broadcast to the group.
Some people performed well in the 'social' tests, but others were affected badly - and overall, performance dropped.

Women appear to feel this pressure more than men - only three out of 13 female volunteers performed well in a social environment, with 10 out of 13 finding that their performance dropped.

Oh NOOOO!!!

No wonder after few meetings 3 days in a row, I have the urged to do things like this....

L? Loser?? no laaah...L for Che Lynn dah LEMAU

See ya peeps!
