Abstract
When used effectively, meetings serve as an invaluable opportunity for coworkers to achieve organizational objectives. However, meetings are often regarded as inefficient, unproductive, and frustrating. We examine the impact of a specific type of meeting behavior, counterproductive meeting behaviors (CMBs), which include non-constructive criticism and complaints, on perceptions of meeting effectiveness. Additionally, we explore the moderating influence of personality characteristics on this relationship. Findings indicate that CMBs are negatively related to perceived meeting effectiveness. The negative relationship is stronger for individuals who possess higher levels of agreeableness and stronger for individuals possessing lower levels of extraversion.
