Valuable Behaviors
When asking groups what they think when they hear the word “virtual” they often think less than, not real, or not valuable. During this episode of the Intentional Greatness® podcast, Sue shares how to make our online meetings more valuable and why we should focus on living a more integrated life. She offers her insights on the behaviors that contribute to Zoom fatigue, and what we can do to make meetings better and more engaging.
Taking Breaks
We have to get more confident and thoughtful about building self-care into our day so that we can take care of ourselves and prevent blending work and home. We have to consider how many times we need to get up and take breaks. Feeling fatigued during meetings is often the result of not being engaged. Taking more breaks actually has you stay creative and energized all day.
Preparing to Participate
We have all reached a point where we’ve relaxed as if it’s always someone else’s meeting.
If you are viewing the meeting as a spectator or a contributor, you’ll ultimately feel that you don’t need to invest your time, create value, or add to the conversation. You should always view a meeting as if it’s your own. Do your homework. Prepare enough to ensure that it is worth your time — that is what makes meetings spectacular.
