Either stop wasting time, or move on to the next topic :) Weekly Meetings might be too much. The human brain can only handle 45 mins of creative brainstorming after that it starts to drag and it takes atleast 2 weeks to come up with enough (if actively pursued) creativity to last another 45 minutes. So keep that all in mind. I have asked all my companies to do a three month projection and during the fortnightly meets we sit with the numbers and then see where we ought to be, where we are and what we need to do. And Numbers never let you go around in tangent - they are absolute and god bless their soul for that - it helps keep focus. Simple rule: do your homework and meet.

Accuracy, with quality is most needed. But brainstorming and weekly meetings always do not help... most of the times they go tangential... I agree.. Accuracy, with quality is most needed.
