Zoomed: Virtual Training Accelerator

Engaging with your team and clients in a virtual environment is a trend that is here to stay. How do you make the most of your virtual meetings? What aspects can you take from the in-person meeting and adapt to a virtual environment?

From the technical issues – such as lighting, camera position, and sound – to harnessing executive presence in a virtual environment, we have you covered with best practices for each. How can you create an intimate environment within a large group, keep your audiences’ attention, or spur creativity for brainstorming and problem solve with the group? With knowledge of the interactive tools that the virtual platforms provide, users are encouraged to participate and engage rather than being a passive listener. These tools include things like breakout rooms, a chat box and even a whiteboard for discussion just as you may use during an in-person meeting. These features are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to cultivating an efficient virtual meeting. Having a better understanding of these capabilities will provide you and your team or clients with a better virtual experience while allowing you to make the most of your time.
