Reference #173: Peopleware

Total time spent in meetings increases with organisation size for two reasons.

First, there is an increased number of parties with vested interest in an action (and hence has an interest to attend meetings).

And second, because talking in meetings provides visibility and hence greater opportunity for the speaker to rise up a company's hierarchy.
