As history books will never let us forget, 2020 was the year the world went remote. Along with that, live events, family gatherings, as well as in-person office meetings shifted to virtual settings. Since the technology will only keep improving and not go away, it’s crucial that we learn the basics of how to run an engaging and effective virtual meeting instead of a long and arduous virtual talk.

Mark jumps back on the show to join Isaac on a deep dive into some techniques we can all use to make our virtual meetings better. As working engineers themselves, they’ve used different approaches when running their routine virtual meetings for their work, and today they share with us the ones that turned out to work pretty well when it comes to keeping people engaged and interacting with the content being discussed.

All the way from the setup and a test run to tips on what to do during the meeting itself, they talk about how to prepare attendees in advance, when can we have everybody unmuted, what to do to keep people’s attention while also sticking to our agenda, and much more. These will certainly be the basic skills of any professional in the future.
