Life In The Boardroom: Chairs, Tables, and Accessories That Will Improve Your Meetings

Enduring long boardroom meetings can be exhausting. Thankfully, today's best furniture and seating brands are hard at work crafting innovative new products designed to revive your meetings. The chairs, tables, and accessories available in 2018 will improve collaboration, comfort, and corporate appeal. Today on the blog we'll showcase a few of the hottest options to consider for your space.

Traditional loop arm boardroom chairs are being kicked to the curb in exchange for adjustable ergonomic seating solutions that encourage a healthier sitting experience. Loop arm boardroom chairs are rapidly becoming outdated as they lack the adjustment capabilities needed for visitors to personalize their operating position. It's for this reason that chairs like the 401B Ambarella from iDesk have become so popular. This designer chair with a mesh back is perfect for the boardroom as it's highly adjustable, supremely comfortable, and not overly expensive at $256.00.

*Ergonomic boardroom chairs are great for businesses that host extended meetings and group strategizing sessions.

Overly bulky chairs are also getting replaced by sleek Euro style boardroom chairs that help to maximize available table space. If you opt for big executive style boardroom chairs, your table can become a bit overcrowded very quickly. Alternatively, euro style boardroom chairs like the Kinetic from Eurotech will help you encourage good posture and comfort without overpowering your furniture.

*European style boardroom chairs are ideal for short meetings and light use. They also provide exceptional value.

A sit to stand boardroom table will do wonders for your meetings. The ability to collaborate while standing will keep you guests active and engaged while simultaneously helping to fight back against the fatigue caused from extended gatherings. Popular ergonomic boardroom tables with adjustable surfaces like the Confluence from Safco are rapidly becoming the go to option for businesses looking to take their meetings to the next level.

*If you're going to invest in a sit to stand boardroom table, you'll likely want to consider adding a few perch stools. They'll provide added support without sacrificing the workplace activity you're looking to gain with your table. We recommend the Twixt or Mogo perch stools from Safco.

If you're looking to create upscale modern vibes, the all new Kadin table collection from Global is a must consider. These designer tables are luxurious and extremely cool. Kadin tables are available in a variety of lengths and surface shapes to meet your specific operational needs. More than 20 finish options are available. These tables are an interior designers dream!

Powered boardroom tables have really become an industry standard. Their popularity is well deserved as they help to streamline meetings and presentations. Popular powered tables like the Medina from Mayline are also pretty affordable by industry standards. The MNC12 model 12' Medina table is $911.99 with power modules available for $235.00 each.

We can't say enough good things about the OFM collaborative tables from the Endure collection. They boast standing height surfaces, swivel out seats, and powered tops. Needless to say, they're absolutely awesome for boardroom makeover projects. Endure tables are also offered with dry erase tops that come in handy when the good ideas are flowing!

If you've invested in a boardroom table that doesn't have a powered top, you're not out of luck. Thanks to brands like ESI you can enjoy the benefits of a powered table on a budget. Their all new FlexCharge9 universal power module offers a circular design that's perfect for the center of any table. The FlexCharge9 comes packed with AC and USB ports that make it easy to host meeting without fear of draining precious battery life.
