Today in 2021, meetings, conferences, trainings and other workplace communication are mostly conducted virtually, adding many new layers of challenge and frustration to facilitating a session that is timely, productive, and engaging. When team members are expected to participate in back-to-back online meetings, planning/brainstorming sessions, status updates, e-training and discussion groups, it is no wonder we are dreading the next virtual session and experiencing “Zoom-fatigue”.
With working remotely or WFH around the globe a mainstay for the foreseeable future, leaders are now tasked with learning or enhancing ever evolving skills in facilitating effective virtual meetings. Online meetings are critical for business outcomes from driving projects, solving problems and sharing critical information to team building, developing trust, maintaining relationships and training new skills.
