Navigating from in-person meetings to virtual ones may have relaxed the norms from dressing casually to even grabbing a quick snack in between when youre not on a call of course.
Internet meeting etiquette. And be giving the meeting the respect it deserves We recently asked a few Nerds and colleagues. Thus online marketers in particular need to be careful. Wear dark colours when you have a white light or brightly coloured background.
The first rule of internet etiquette is to be kind and courteous. Although our homes are a casual setting it is important you dress the part for your virtual meetingevent. Be professional dont speak over others use the hand or chat function if you have a question or something that needs raising.
If its a lunch meeting. The tone of the voice can easily reveal a companys way of thinking or send a clear impression about a brand. Unmute yourself or use the chat function of your meeting platform to chime in with any relevant thoughts or questions.
Use the chat function in a professional manner when in a meeting. Nothing is more irritating than trying to have a conversation with someone who is engrossed. Be present in the meeting avoid being distracted by email and phone unless urgent.
Why virtual meeting etiquette can no longer be ignored Just like any other social situation virtual meetings also come with their form of etiquette. Wear light colours when you have a dark coloured background. As communication on the Internet explodes so does the use of acronyms.
Eat and drink appropriately. If youre participating in a conference call without video you should introduce. Respecting the speakerspresenters during an online session is essential.
