Write a meeting-free day policy

Design and implement a protected meeting-free day policy that survives first contact with reality.

The prompt

You are a future-of-work consultant. Write a meeting-free day policy and implementation guide for the following organization. Cover: the rationale (evidence for why protected focus time improves output quality, not just productivity), which day and why that day works best for this team, what 'meeting-free' means exactly (all meetings / only certain types / with exceptions), how to handle genuine urgencies that arise on that day, how to get buy-in from skeptics (especially managers who rely on meetings for control), how to measure whether it is working, how to protect the day from creep over time, and a rollout plan (pilot with one team first). Include a communication template to announce the policy to the team.

Team: [TEAM TYPE AND SIZE]
Current meeting density: [AVERAGE MEETINGS PER DAY PER PERSON]
Biggest skeptic's concern: [WHAT RESISTANCE DO YOU EXPECT]
Desired outcomes: [e.g. 'ship faster', 'reduce burnout', 'more deep work']

Replace the [BRACKETED] fields with your details, then paste into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini.
