Meeting Fatigue
Meeting fatigue is the cognitive, emotional, and physical exhaustion that results from excessive meeting density, back-to-back scheduling, or the particular demands of video conferencing, which requires sustained attention and removes natural conversational cues.
理解する Meeting Fatigue
Stanford research identified four primary contributors to video call fatigue: the cognitive effort of processing non-verbal cues on video, the self-awareness of seeing yourself on screen, the reduced mobility of sitting in front of a camera, and the close proximity of faces at conversational distance. Beyond video-specific factors, general meeting fatigue results from too many meetings, back-to-back scheduling without recovery time, meetings that could have been emails, and the cognitive cost of frequent context switching between meeting topics.
GAIAの活用方法 Meeting Fatigue
GAIA identifies meeting fatigue patterns in your calendar by analyzing meeting density, back-to-back frequency, total meeting hours per day, and the proportion of your schedule consumed by meetings. It suggests meeting-free blocks, flags days with unsustainable meeting loads, and helps protect time for focused work by preventing additional meetings from being added to already-dense days.
