Not a moment where people are trying not to sleep.
Seth Godin brings a little gold:
If you want someone else to take the blame and give you the credit, you will wait a very long time.

So, if you are in a meeting supposed to act, act! The thing about meetings (other than an alternative way of work đź« ) is that meetings can be useful to bring people together. Kind of a “synchronization” mode.
Every meeting should have a purpose and:
- questions to be answered (decision making).
You’re on delivery mode. - questions to be created (warmup topic + brainstorm).
You’re on discovery mode.
If you are not in a meeting to take action, you may be there to act as a facilitator or mediator. If that’s not the case, why are you attending a meeting? Check your focus again.
