A method for joining a mobile device to a meeting event begins with docking a mobile device in a docking station. The mobile device can be associated with a user profile, and is operable to receive a monitoring input. The mobile device detects a change in the monitoring input, and determines whether or not the change in the monitoring input corresponds with a docked state of the mobile device. Upon determining that the change in monitoring input did correspond with a docked state, a meeting application of the mobile device configures a docking mode of the mobile device. The meeting application connects to a meeting calendar that is associated with the user profile, and retrieves a desired meeting event from the meeting calendar. The meeting application then joins the desired meeting event.
