Weeks into global quarantine, the early, rosy promise that video conferencing would seamlessly supplant in-person work culture has given way to a dimmer reality: calendars overburdened with internal meetings and research indicating that our ill-equipped psyches are suffering “Zoom fatigue.” But authentic, productive, and even enjoyable remote meetings are possible — they just require a new set of skills.
In this workshop, we’ll discuss:
- How to avoid common pitfalls, connect authentically, and increase everyone’s engagement
- When to step away from the video screen in favor of an old-fashioned phone call
- Structures for managing both remote calendars and meetings
- What’s missing from today’s remote-meeting technology and what the next generation of offerings might bring
