Shark Walk

A Distributed Work Tool

A "Shark Walk” is a meeting you have on the phone while walking. This is an activity inspired by sharks, which have to keep moving to survive.

The key takeaway is move while you meet.

You can’t be at your desk all day, but you still have to connect, talk, and get work done. To avoid burnout, consider taking a “Shark Walk.”

(By the way, we learned that a group of sharks is called a “shiver.” This is not essential information, but it seems cool to know.)
