Zoom Meeting Pro Tips – On Time, On Camera

As we all work hard to connect and keep moving forward, being engaged during a virtual meeting is important!  One of Annette’s biggest pet peeves is not “showing up” for the Zoom.“If I can get dressed with make-up and matching shoes on Mountain Time Zone, you need to show up and show your face,” Annette says. “It is so hard for a presentor or meeting moderator to not see faces and only names.  Be on time and participate.  In offices with great leadership, this happens and it helps everyone get the most out of their time and the experience.”[caption id="attachment_4511" align="aligncenter" width="600"]

  • Make sure your audio and video are good. Check your internet connection and ear phones/pods can have shorts or run out of battery ‚Äì double check.
  • Lighting matters.¬† Be sure you are lit in front of your face. Use a window for nature light.¬† Turn off lights behind or directly above your head. Contemplate a ring light to take it next level. They are super affordable on Amazon.
