Default Outlook Meeting Lengths to 25 minutes and 50 minutes

This has been spoken of in various places over the last year, but I wanted to reinforce a simple change to your Outlook that will make your and your co-worker’s lives better. We often forget that we need time between meetings, especially when every meeting is a video conference. I was recently in 8 back-to-back one hour meetings, which makes it difficult to regain time to think, focus, or be productive. In business, we’ll usually fill the space allotted, so make sure you intentionally craft the time by setting Outlook to give you time between meetings by setting default meeting lengths to 25 minutes and 50 minutes.
