Happy New Year!
We are a couple of weeks into 2021 and getting back into the swing of things. This, of course, includes business meetings. Most of us will be conducting our meetings virtually in 2021, so here are a few tips brought to you by Business Insider and Mimi Bliss, an executive presentation skills coach and former TV reporter.
1. Use interactive tools - engagement improves with poling, whiteboards, etc.
2. Elbows off the table - bad posture can make your voice go flat.
3. Start the stopwatch - give everyone the opportunity to speak.
4. Stop rambling - using precise and short sentences is key.
5. Use photographs - visuals can help improve engagement.
6. You’re on TV - remember to be presentable.
We wish you all a happy and successful 2021! What are some tips you use for virtual meetings?
