11:00 AM - Mastering Engagement on Video Conferencing Platforms
Running an effective online meeting is more than scheduling a Zoom meeting and inviting people to join you. It’s about engaging your community and interacting with your meeting attendees in a way that makes them want to participate and jump into the conversation. No matter if you’re running a work meeting, leading a networking event, teaching online or even holding a conference, you want your people to leave inspired and energized by their time with you! In this session, you’ll find out how to encourage everyone to keep their cameras on, join in the conversation and most importantly, be excited to come back to your next Zoom meeting. Hosted by Sierra Bailey.
12:00 PM - Communicating with Confidence in a Virtual World
This new virtual world has lasted far longer than we might have imagined and will change the way we operate in the future. Having to transition from in-person meetings, sales, presentations, job interviews and interaction to communicating and doing business and volunteer work virtually can be intimidating. But the skill of being on camera has never been more important, and it doesn’t have to be so overwhelming.
Kim & Mike Barnes will share how to show up well for virtual meetings. From looking good and keeping your audience engaged to virtual etiquette and using technology to your advantage, they'll share tips & tricks to make you more effective. Everyone will leave with a better understanding of what they’re doing (or not doing) to create more impactful virtual connections. Hosted By Kim & Mike Barnes of Barnes Team Media.
12:45 PM - Mastermind with the Experts
Join Kim & Mike Barnes, Grace Lanni, & Sierra Bailey for an impromptu business brainstorming session for a few lucky participants.
