Working from home is here to stay, at least until well into 2021 and beyond. At the core of the virtual workplace is video conferencing. Yet millions of business users still struggle to master the nuances of online meetings in ways that reflect their professionalism, authority, and credibility. Whether you use Zoom, Cisco WebEx, Microsoft Teams, GoToMeeting, Google Meet or another video meeting solution, there is much to learn about how to succeed on the small screen.

Rosemary Ravinal, communications expert, public speaker and Zoom mastery trainer, designed the Virtual Communicators Toolbox and the ZoomScore™, based on 10 fundamentals of a professional video presence. Her interactive 50-minute mini-workshop will show you how to make virtual the next best thing to being there in person. Volunteer participants will receive a hot seat coaching session.

Participants will receive a copy of 7 Essential Steps to Master Public Speaking on Zoom by Rosemary Ravinal.
