You might be used to meetings in conference rooms or over zoom, but the days of being restricted to four walls are over. Luckily, walking meetings benefit everyone involved, so it becomes less of a drag right off the bat just to participate!

Aside from just being plain good for you, here are some notable benefits of a walking meeting:

–        Increases engagement and creative thinking

–        Boosts energy and motivation

–        Encourage an organic, natural exchange of thoughts

–        Improved collaboration and connection

The great thing about walking meetings is that you can start implementing them as soon as you want! Even if your team works over zoom, you can encourage workers to take a walk and participate in the meeting via zoom or Microsoft teams call.

Some people might find it difficult to be actively engaged at work during the summer months. With social media especially, there are endless distractions and seasonal events that make it tempting to disengage from work. 

Whether you’re managing a team in person or remotely, there are a few different ways to keep everyone on the ball.

–        Encourage collaboration-oriented tasks

–        Check in at a reasonable frequency

–        Be lenient with short breaks

–        Conduct walking meetings
