TRY THIS: Evaluate the meetings where you work. Whatever your role, how might you incorporate mindfulness and help meetings function better? Ask yourself the following questions.
Is the purpose of each meeting clear? If not, how might you help clarify the purpose?
Are all meetings the same type? How might you vary the types of meetings so each aligns with its purpose?
Do you and your team look forward to meetings? If not, what steps can you take to improve expectations and the experience of meetings?
What are the cultural and behavioral norms in your workplace and in your meetings? What is the level of trust, vulnerability, and joy? What stands in the way of these?
How might you use and integrate mindfulness practices with your meetings to improve any and all of these aspects?
