This app is based on Soup Nazi the Sienfeld character. And that character was i think from middle east.

@appstop “No App For YOU”

Either this person has really bad sense of humor or has never watched Sienfeld Soup Nazi episode. Meeting Nazi is a fun app, a play on Soup Nazi and it makes meetings effective. Because not everyone is good at keeping meeting on task. That’s where meeting nazi comes handy.

Today i stumbled upon an @reply i received. When i checked the account, I was shocked to see that @appstop is just desperate to bring us down and has been provocating tweeters against our app. Not sure how to respond or just ignore. Any thoughts?

What is MPDD and GPDD ?

We have discovered 2 very common disorders amongst corprate. They are not to be taken lightly.

MPDD: Make a Point Deficit Disorder
People with this disorder talk a lot in meetings without making a point. You can reply to most of their points with “May be” or if they go beyond tolerance then you can press the “Your are pushing your luck” button. This has worked for many.

GPDD: Get the Point Deficit Disorder
People with this disorder oftend to not follow logical conclusions or strategy. They are a challenge. You may try to explain the point like you would to a 5 year old. If they go beyond tolerance, just press the “No Meeting For You” button. This is the most popular solution.

Just ask “What will Soup Nazi do?”

Meeting nazi is a simple iPhone app based on a very simple concept “What will Soup Nazi do in a meeting room?”. I came up with this idea when i was in one of those unproductive meetings. I yelled “No meeting for you” and there was a sudden silence in the conference room followed by laughter. That actually worked and we got back on track with the agenda.

The funny thing is there are 100’s of books and seminars that teach you the art of running effective meetings and how to keep the group focused. They literally put you to sleep and charge you thousands of dollars. While all you need is a way to grab attention (preferably with humor) and interrupt the conversation and bring them back on track.

So next time you are approached by someone to a training on Effective Meetings, just say

“No Time For You”
