The key is having the comfort, strategy and skill set for to make video-based events an experience that is positive and productive, and establishes your image and reputation as the leader you are regardless of your title. In this interactive meeting, our facilitator Laura Sicola will share 5 key strategies to confidently run an effective video-based team meeting, board conference, training or other event, and also the psychology behind engaging your audience thus bolstering your influence and success! This won't be one-way communication; our SIM Women members and participants will be front and center.
You'll learn both tactical and strategic secrets to: - Mindset and getting over the fear/discomfort of "I don't like looking at myself on camera"
- Technology - the importance of good camera angles and proper mic use
- Do's and don'ts of screen-sharing, creating PPT slides to maximize engagement, etc.
- Sounding natural rather than canned, especially if you have to do any asynchronous video recordings (e.g. news blasts to a larger audience that they'll watch at their convenience rather than live)
- Maximizing engagement by setting behavioral expectations and managing participation for overall effectiveness.
