I don’t think I’m the only facilitator or meeting host who has ever had this problem.

What's the problem? You want to start your meeting or workshop on time but there are a few people who are late. Some of those people happen to be pretty influential.

What do you do, do you start on time, or wait a few minutes in the hope that they will arrive?
