Meeting Cost Reduction · For the CFO

Meeting costs are not
on your budget.
But they are real.

The recurring cost that is never reported.

Every inconclusive meeting repeats itself the following week. For organisations with 50 employees, this adds up to €105,600 per year without a single invoice.

How meeting costs accumulate

Meeting costs are personnel costs that are not booked as such. They do not appear on an invoice, but they are real and calculable.

Meeting without structure
Step 1

Direct costs

Participants × average rate × duration. A two-hour management meeting with six people: easily €2,000 per session.

Step 2

Repeat costs

67% of meetings end without a decision. The same item returns 2.4 times. Actual costs are 2.4× the direct costs.

Step 3

Opportunity costs

Every decision made too late has a price tag. Missed contracts, delayed projects, staff turnover due to indecision.

What does structured decision-making deliver?

Meeting Cost Reduction reduces meetings, shortens their duration, and raises the decision ratio. The financial impact is directly measurable.
