I woukd think one of them is trying to seduce the other. Unless they are having an affair.

I assume you are joking.


No.
That's what I would think.


That's cool. The world is full of different people, including the nosy, suspicious, delusional, extreme types. And then there's normal people.

I wouldn't give that a second thought. I am in a very male dominated industry and if I didn't have meetings with my colleagues I'd be out of a job. I've done walking meetings before, or outside meetings. I've also traveled with male colleagues, had dinner while traveling, etc. Never had an issue.

No. I would not find it strange at all.

They're walking and talking around the building in public, yes? Totally not a big deal. Especially on a day like today when it's lovely, why *wouldn't* you want to hold a meeting outside, if it's possible to do?

I do this all the time, but I work in tech in the Bay Area, and we have walking/biking meetings regularly. I've also had ping pong meetings.

No big deal. UNLESS YOU ARE MIKE PENCE AND NOT WALKING WITH "MOTHER"....

I work on a college campus. Many on my team in various permutations walk around the mall, in groups or pairs. I walked around with a male college of mine today. We talked about event planning and a development publication and somehow managed not to boink under a tree.

I enjoy walking meetings - and have had them with men and women on nice days.

Does this give the impression of appropriateness?

No. Walking is healthy and it's actually easier to have tough conversations when you aren't face-to-face across a conference room table.
