The Micropolitics of Meeting Room Seating

This episode examines how where you sit in a meeting room can affect your perceived influence and career trajectory. Lucas and Luna break down research on spatial dynamics — including a 2023 study from the Journal of Organizational Behavior showing that people who sit at the head of a rectangular table speak 32% more often than those in the mid-sides — and discuss how to use seating as a quiet tool for participation and visibility. They also explore the unwritten rules of claiming a seat without seeming aggressive, and what happens when you walk into a room where all the power positions are already taken. #MeetingRoomSeating #WorkplaceDynamics #OfficePolitics #Influence #Careers #SpatialDynamics #BodyLanguage #Visibility #OrganizationalBehavior #NonverbalCommunication #MeetingEtiquette #ConferenceRoom #PowerPositions #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TheOfficePoliticsPodcast #Leadership #ProfessionalPresence Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
