All of us are attending more virtual events from home these days… Here are a few tips we’ve learned along the way.
- Test the link and the platform prior to the call on whatever device you plan to use.
- Check your space. How’s the lighting, the background, etc. Will you be comfortable for the duration of the call?
- Mute yourself when you aren’t speaking. This is a courtesy to everyone else on the call as the platform will pick up the mic with the loudest noise and override others.
- Engage. Act as if you were there in person. You’ll enjoy the session more and everyone benefits.
- Wine tasting – you may want to have snacks handy when you taste or have eaten prior to the call if you have wine in your glass. This is one opportunity while it is perfectly acceptable to drink and eat while enjoying the community experience (virtually).’
Consume wisely & enjoy!
