In this paper we present the motivation, design, development, and initial evaluation of a time awareness technology for meetings. As part of improving meetings effectiveness using technology, we focus on the meeting time management, and the method relies on presenting real-time notifications of the progression of the meeting phases to the participants. We then evaluate the utility of the technology, and its impact on the people and their behavior in the meeting, concluding that such a support system brings added value to the meeting outcome in a number of ways.
