| Summary |
"The transition to remote work and a video-centric culture can be challenging even with the best tools. Most people do not feel comfortable or confident speaking on camera - even a small one. Many are also making minor but important mistakes which are magnified through the lens. These miscues can have costly consequences -- a virtual sales call that falls flat, a companywide meeting that loses impact, an absence of cohesion and productivity in a dispersed team. This book is designed to help readers better understand how to make these remote meetings work. By combining meeting-science based insights and practical application tips, readers will be able to maximize the effectiveness of their meetings and overcome barriers in an ever-growing virtual realm."-- Provided by publisher. |
