With digital technology being the norm nowadays, it’s quite common to have people work with others from across the world. That’s why having a solid understanding of how to make remote meetings work for you and your team members is more important than ever.
Since online communications have become part of the weekly schedule, how can you make them more effective and efficient for everyone involved?
Here are the top five tips you should know to have better virtual meetings.
Meetings are professional obligations which is why you should treat them that way. Although you may not be expected to wear formal business attire when away from the office, you should still make yourself presentable and prepared to start working.
Even when you’re working at home, act like you’re in the office. Make sure that you dress and look the part at the start of each workday.
No one wants to see a dark backdrop or a misaligned camera view of a person when joining a call. Go around the house and see where you can find an ideal background for your virtual meeting. You want to choose a setting that provides sufficient lighting, neatness, and simplicity.
Ensure that your camera is elevated enough to show a full-sized view of your face. Also, check that you have a quality video camera with good sound capture.
It’s understandable to have some form of background noise during your virtual meeting because you are at home after all. However, you should do your best to eliminate noise and any other distractions that can hamper your calls.
Before the meeting, make sure you select a quiet space away from others so you can conduct your calls without any random interruptions.
During this time, when people are seeking interaction and developing connections with others, it’s important to take advantage of the opportunity to meet with others even if it’s done virtually. That’s why you should enable your video camera’s function during your call. Being on screen can help build and maintain harmonious relationships with your colleagues.
If you’ve made sure you look presentable, have a good background, as well as decent lighting, then turning your camera on for the virtual meeting shouldn’t be a problem.
Lastly, you want to be good at using the video conferencing app that you frequently use. Ensure that you practice using it beforehand and test out other things like the audio and video quality.
Being prepared for your next important virtual meeting can help ensure a good call experience.
