At Calendly, we believe in scheduling time for things that matter. hashtag#CalendlyCares is our way of giving back to our local communities! By empowering our incredible colleagues to get involved through volunteering and charitable giving, we're working to make a positive difference wherever we can. Our most recent event was a smashing success! 🤝 More than 80 Calendly team members volunteered with their friends, neighbors and families for over 20 nonprofit organizations. 🌍 Groups of Calendly volunteers joined together in Atlanta, Austin, Charleston, Denver, Pittsburgh, San Diego, and San Francisco. 🛠 Activities ranged from blood donations and park clean-ups to gardening, food bank support, and animal nonprofit work. Together, we’re not just scheduling time—we’re making it count. 💙
How do YOU really feel about meetings? In our annual State of Meetings Report we asked ,200 business professionals this very question and more to understand what they love about meetings, dislike, and how they believe meetings can be improved. What we found might surprise you 👀 81% of respondents said more meetings would actually help them in some way. You read that right. But, here’s the catch: That’s only if they’re productive meetings. Here's what else we found: - The time we spend just scheduling meetings has increased this year compared to 2023—no wonder we found there’s a growing appetite for AI in smart scheduling assistance. 🤖 - Most of us are multitasking during virtual meetings—a sign that we need to make that time more engaging and purposeful. ⚡ - Different age groups experience meetings differently—from establishing boundaries (which we found Gen Z does a great job of!) to keeping agendas on track. 📅 The bottom line—meetings themselves are not the problem. It’s all about how we approach them. This is just the tip of the data iceberg. Want to dive into ALL the findings and create hashtag#BetterMeetings ahead of 2025?
