power breakfasts
Morning business meetings
Power breakfasts are early-morning business meetings held over breakfast, typically at upscale restaurants or hotels.
The format combines eating with deal-making, networking, or strategic discussion among executives, politicians, or other influential figures.
The term emerged in the 1980s alongside power lunches, reflecting a culture where ambitious professionals squeezed work into every meal: The CEO has power breakfasts scheduled all week.
