WorkWalk Box
Workwalk is a concept to facilitate and encourage walking meetings. The concept aims to normalise walking while working, making it an integral part of office work.
A Workwalk consists of three elements:
A (physical) route with signage;
meeting points to start the meeting;
and the possibility of booking a Workwalk instead of a normal meeting room.
Why a Workwalk?
Walking and walking meetings have many benefits. The literature shows several positive health effects such as lowering the risks of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, general mortality and stress. It can also reduce depression and anxiety symptoms and has a positive effect on your mental well-being and overall mood and happiness. Besides health benefits, walking also has a positive effect on consultation productivity by improving discussions and increasing creativity.
Toolkit for walking meetings
Booking a Workwalk ensures that you and your colleagues know where to meet and that you can start your walking consultation prepared. You have a place to safely store your bag and the meeting points provide an opportunity to complete your consultation in a structured way. The fixed-time routes ensure natural time management of your consultation, so you are no longer surprised by the clock or the next consultation that is already ahead. As a result, you not only have a much healthier and more creative consultation, but also a lot more efficient.
