When I worked at a big corp, we talked about this issue at some point.
We started literally putting up a cost clock, that ticked off the running cost of a meeting. It was surprisingly convincing and motivating for everyone, even (especially?) our external customers who were previously happy to sit and chat for hours.
That said, there's a reason I don't work at a 'big corp' anymore :)
