Description
Scientific tests show that creative performance improves after exercising between 8-30 mins. For project workshops and meetings where you need to activate the participants, a short walk as part of the agenda can raise the level of energy and activate the creative minds. Instead of having the entire meeting in a meeting room, try taking a walk with your colleagues when feasible. This can be a good idea for parts of the meeting where no IT equipment is needed, and the participants must work together to find solutions to a problem, discuss team issues or identify project risks, etc. A walk can also be a part of the meeting before or after going into the meeting room! In the end, physically active meetings create a different kind of productivity aside from helping you de-stress and get fresh air. As a Guru Project Manager, you must always consider when a walk & talk can be a fruitful part of your team and meeting facilitation. This tool includes two PowerPoint slides. Adjust the first slide to your specific walk & talk agenda. The second slide is an introduction slide you can use to introduce the walk & talk concept to the team and communicate the benefits of the concept.
