Summer is here, and it’s a great time of year for those of us on campus to get outside for a walking meeting. Many times creative thoughts come when we are walking, talking and thinking in the outdoors. We spend a lot of our day sitting. The benefits of a walking meeting include improving productivity, health and creative thinking.

A few things to keep in mind as we prepare for a walking meeting: keep the meeting small, plan the route and keep it structured. Check out the Walking Meeting Guide from campus for further considerations and resources.
