Its a fact that sometimes people deviate from being to the point in what they say in meetings. How do you get them on track ?

On larger teams I'll ask the participants to provide their updates before the meeting, either on a wiki or shared OneNote page. Then they can speak to the points in the meeting. If a person is really going, I'll interrupt to ask a clarifying question, then take control by interviewing them to get the salient points. Sometimes I just let them go... And go...

I agree sometimes even if you have meeting rules, you have to let some people just go and go ... I see your point Robert.

"In Italy for thirty years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed - but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love, 500 years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock."
- Orson Welles, The Third Man
