Law department consulting guru Rees Morrison notes a post about making conference calls more effective – certainly a topic of interest to all in-house counsel:
A post on a blog of Legal Week, reprinted in Legal Week, Vol. 9, May 24, 2007, at 20, reminds us of four ways to improve conference calls.

InhouseBlog has a couple other suggestions:
- No conference calls should be scheduled after lunch on a Friday in June, July or August; and
- No one should be permitted to dial in from the game room at Sesame Place using a 1980s vintage cell phone (the ones that have shoulder straps).
