Boardroom Tables Kill Creativity

Why are boardrooms always set up the same way when we know the typical boardroom kills creativity and promotes conventional thinking? Why are meetings always set for 30 or 60 minutes?  Why do we serve lollies, cakes, and sandwiches at our meetings even though we know they suck the energy out of the room and generally damage our health? We do these things because society tells us this is appropriate when we gather people together in a business setting. Why follow the crowd and take the same flawed approach as every other business? Most boardrooms are dull, unstimulating, and facilitate little more than time wasted in meetings. Don't let this be you and your company. Technology, like the SMART Kapp Board, is changing the dynamic of boardrooms, meetings, communication, and collaboration. Mark Twain once said, "whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority - it's time to pause and reflect." Let that time be now. © GB
