143 Kim Foley - Communicating Effectively in Virtual Meetings

Since the start of the pandemic, our workdays have changed. We’re working longer, and attending more meetings. Look at your calendar, you’re likely to see a never-ending list of meetings. And most of those meetings are taking place virtually: On Zoom, Teams, WebEx, Skype, and other vehicles. That virtual world requires a particular set of skills. Communicating on camera is different than doing so in a face-to-face environment. If you communicate poorly on video, your brand, credibility, and reputation can be adversely affected. If you embrace video communication, your leadership, presence, and influence can improve. Kim Foley is a communication consultant. She works with Fortune 500 companies and professionals from a variety of sectors helping them communicate more effectively on video. She’s the author of “Virtual Meetings with Power and Presence: The Ultimate Guide to Online Meetings.” She joins us today to discuss how you can communicate effectively in your virtual meetings.

Mason School of Business at William and Mary can help you and your organization develop your top talent through customized executive education and professional development programs.
