Key Points

Be apparent about the purpose of your meeting: connect, align, decide, ideate/brainstorm, plan, or produce. Discover more from Mamie Kanfer Stewart.
You need to be more apparent and intentional about timing, transitions, and facilitation in an online meeting than with an in-person one.
Use a service like BombBomb* for video messages that don’t require live interaction.
Unless background noise or size of the meeting prevents it, invite people to “unmute” so you can have richer dialogue without interruption.
Alert people if they have audio issues. Get headsets for your team, if possible. We use and recommend the Jabra Evolve line* of USB headsets.
Number one rule for lighting: position light in front of you and not behind you. If the front light can be natural (i.e. facing a window) even better.
