Reframing the Zoom Void: Crafting Authentic Virtual Presentations that Move People

Thursday, October 31, 2024
1:00 PM – 2:00 PM CDT
Location: Schaumburg A
Presentation Description: We have all attended or presented orientations or events via platforms like Zoom. During the pandemic, we adapted content the best we could with little training on how to use this new medium that comes with real challenges. Our session will share real-life examples to help you deliver meaningful virtual presentations and increase engagement with less anxiety. Ultimately, our goal is to help you ditch the idea that virtual presentations are worse versions of in-person events and give you tools to become more confident using this unique communication technology to your advantage.

Learning Objectives:

  • Reframe how you think about virtual video conference technology so it's less intimidating and more useful.
  • Design and prepare for virtual presentations with less anxiety and more confidence.
  • Use the video conferencing platform in a way that feels meaningful and engaging for the presenter and the attendees.
