How do I kick someone out of a meeting room?


Answer: If you're working in an office and waiting for a meeting room to be cleared out, you can start by making your presence known by gently knocking at the door. Usually you can give the other party a few minutes to wrap up, but if they are still in the room you can make a stronger statement by cracking the door and leaving it open. If they still do not leave, you can get more assertive by entering the room or by verbally engaging them to explain that their time is up and you need the room. In a few cases the other party might need the room for critical reasons - customer escalations and interviews, in which case you might need to look for a different room to have your meeting.
