As part of a movement to get people to take more walking meetings, I conducted some trials and validated my cause. This presentation presents the 3 main insights.

2. It’s important to get people to walk more

3. …by taking walking meetings…

4. …because of 3 reasons.
1. Virality
2. Scheduling
3. Persuasion

5. Virality
Most people don’t realize that
if we can get one person to do
this all the time, the movement
will then spread organically.

6. Virality
I know this because
I got two college students to take
walks with their friends instead of
sitting down to catch up. Some of
their friends also caught on and
started doing the same.

7. Scheduling
Most people don’t realize that
many people want to walk but blame lack of
time for not doing so. Converting existing
meetings into walks is an effective solution.

8. Scheduling
I know this because
I got college students who were “too busy to
walk” to convert their existing meetings into
walks. They did 2 hours of walking in a week.

9. Persuasion
Most people don’t realize that
the benefits of a walking meeting are immediately
noticeable and don’t need much discussion.

10. Persuasion
I know this because
I tried doing this with people who hadn’t done it
before & 3/5 said on their own that they loved it.
