Long meetings where the organizer or one person drones on and on without really adding anything to the discussion. Takes meetings off into tangents and feels like he/she needs to use the entire hour. Lack of participation from others in the group. Leaves meeting without action items or understanding of each person's tasks at the end of the meeting.

No structure to the meeting. Letting one person take over the entire meeting and provide long winded redundant responses. A lack of engagement from everyone. It’s not always about the instructor. If the participants are resistant or disengaged it can set a bad tone.

The worst meeting was where the presenter allowed the class to stray from the prepared subject matter & totally lose focus.

Zero engagement! Over zealous instructor. Too long, no breaks, no snacks

Talking about in-person meetings: The worst meeting that I went to was when the facilitator was totally unprepared, the talk was one-sided with a bunch of boring, verbose slides, participants were on their cell phones checking messages and tweeting, the room temperature was uncomfortably cold, the font in the presentation wasn't legible enough, there were technology difficulties (projector wasn't working, microphone wasn't good), the seating in the room wasn't conducive for a discussion type of environment (more suited for a classroom training), the speaker's tone was monotonous, the speaker was just reading what's on the slides (that's pretty insulting to the audience if all you're doing is reading what's on the slides), the speaker had no passion in what (s)he was trying to convey, there was no back and forth conversations or discussions within the group.

What makes a bad meeting?  Poor Planning, zero engagement. Cold, uncomfortable environment. If the facilitator is not polite, talks over people, doesn't listen. Those factors in my opinion contribute to nonproductive meetings

I have been to very painful meetings that were quite torturous! It was obvious that the facilitators of these meetings did not prepare the information with the audience in mind. These meetings were absent engagement and the leader of the meetings were not excited about the information they were sharing. When you're excited about the information that you're sharing or excited to share the information, that excitement is contagious. So, the best way to create the worst possible, non-functioning, non-participatory, painful meeting is plan poorly and miss the opportunity to understand that the best way to teach adults is to solicit relevant engagement.
