Why Sanjeev Barnwal of Meesho prefers morning meetings

Back when he was with Sony in Japan, Sanjeev Barnwal was among those who helped develop the company’s popular Cyber-shot cameras. Right from the way we’ve organised teams to how we hire talent, develop the talent at our disposal, build the organisation/team culture here at Meesho has been based on the insights received from these people. How I go about it depends on who I’m giving advice to, whether it’s someone who needs some guidance on managing teams, becoming a better engineer, stakeholder management, or problem solving frameworks. One thing I’ve consciously done since the onset of the pandemic is to schedule meetings, especially the super critical ones, in the first half of the day starting from 10 am.
