Got A Meeting? Take a Walk More studies reveal the adverse effects of prolonged sitting in the workplace.
1. Everybody sits more than they sleep -> Sitting for 9.5 hrs and sleeping for 7 hrs a day.
2. Everyone has a lot of meetings everyday at work -> If we start meetings with a walk around, we reduce the amount we sit.
3. If we walk while meetings -> It is out of the box and it triggers out of the box thinking.
4. Fresh air drives fresh thinking.
Many of us have on the go meetings (on phone), meetings having a cup of coffee, meetings while driving home... so why not try meetings with a walk?? Helps your waist!! Next time you have your meeting with not much to write down ofcourse, take a walk with others around your work place. I hope your office has some sort of a garden or a lawn :) Mine has a beautiful lawn, pathway, ponds and some ducks too!!
