Communicating in a virtual environment can be daunting because the same skills needed in face-to-face training do not readily translate into a virtual environment. However, online presentations can be engaging. The biggest challenges are how to use one’s verbal and non-verbal skills in an engaging manner as well as how to incorporate virtual platform best practices to keep clients, colleagues and other audiences involved. Thirdly, many people who are new to virtual delivery say that they ‘don’t know what they don’t know’ and want to learn to be more confident and credible in their presentations from the outset.
When presenting online it’s helpful to think of yourself as broadcaster and your studio as a combination of your lighting, background, camera and sound. Learn how to adapt broadcasting skills to your online meetings and presentations to keep audiences engaged and inspired!
