Showing Up Late<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When attending a virtual meeting you should approach it like a normal meetin<\/span>g<\/span>;<\/span>\u00a0th<\/span>is<\/span>\u00a0means\u00a0<\/span>aiming to join a few\u00a0<\/span>minutes before the scheduled time so that you can check your internet connection<\/span>,\u00a0<\/span>camera and microphone a<\/span>re all working correctly.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While everyone understands that working from home is a slightly more casual approach to work life<\/span>,<\/span>\u00a0being\u00a0<\/span>punctual will\u00a0<\/span>be<\/span>\u00a0appreciated<\/span>\u00a0by the\u00a0<\/span>meeting\u00a0<\/span>organiser<\/span>\u00a0and it demonstrates your professionalism and respect towards everyone else<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Talking Over Others<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It is never a good look to m<\/span>onopolis<\/span>e<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>a<\/span>\u00a0conversation and tal<\/span>k<\/span>\u00a0over others\u00a0<\/span>in person<\/span>. The\u00a0<\/span>same goes fo<\/span>r virtually<\/span>. This type of behaviour\u00a0<\/span>c<\/span>ould<\/span>\u00a0be seen as<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>counterproductive<\/span>\u00a0in work meetings<\/span>,<\/span>\u00a0especially when time is off the\u00a0<\/span>essence<\/span>. Zoom meetings\u00a0<\/span>can, at t<\/span>imes<\/span>,<\/span>\u00a0be<\/span>\u00a0difficult enough to navigate<\/span>,<\/span>\u00a0so\u00a0<\/span>let others speak<\/span>\u00a0to<\/span>\u00a0help<\/span>\u00a0keep things running smoothly<\/span>\u00a0and make everyone feel<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>involved<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Appearing Too Casual<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It is always good to pay attention to your appearance when in a work setting and virtual meetings are no different. N<\/span>eglect<\/span>ing<\/span>\u00a0your appearance<\/span>\u00a0could give of<\/span>f<\/span>\u00a0the wrong impression that the meeting\u00a0<\/span>doesn\u2019t have<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>the same\u00a0<\/span>level of importance as\u00a0<\/span>it<\/span>\u00a0would\u00a0<\/span>in a normal business setting.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We suggest being\u00a0<\/span>well<\/span>\u00a0dressed and\u00a0<\/span>groomed as<\/span>\u00a0if you were in the office and approach the meeting<\/span>\u00a0in a positive mood.<\/span>\u00a0While we\u00a0<\/span>may be spending a lot more time in\u00a0<\/span>our pyjamas<\/span>\u00a0it\u2019s still important to dress professionally for Zoom meetings<\/span>,\u00a0<\/span>at least from the waist up<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Having an Inappropriate Background<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This one is\u00a0<\/span>a tricky subject as t<\/span>here\u2019s\u00a0<\/span>no doubt\u00a0<\/span>a wide range of what\u2019s considered \u2018appropriate\u2019 depend<\/span>s<\/span>\u00a0on your personality, your company<\/span>\u00a0and your industry<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>W<\/span>hen choosing where to sit\u00a0<\/span>during<\/span>\u00a0your virtual\u00a0<\/span>meetin<\/span>g<\/span>\u00a0t<\/span>ry to pick a presentable spot in your home<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A good way to avoid an inappropriate background is\u00a0<\/span>us<\/span>e<\/span>\u00a0a virtual background.\u00a0<\/span>This way you can choose from a wide range of suitable options and a<\/span>void visibly messy rooms or inappropriate posters<\/span>,<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>holiday ornaments or\u00a0<\/span>drying clothes<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>in the background.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Not Engaging<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The first thing you can do be instantly more engaged is to t<\/span>urn on your camera<\/span>. While we understand some pe<\/span>ople\u00a0<\/span>avoid using their camera because they<\/span>\u00a0feel nervous<\/span>, this can\u00a0<\/span>immediately form a barrier<\/span>\u00a0between you and other attendees<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span>By using your camera, you can show you are listening and engaged, that way the speaker will feel more at ease too<\/span>, which\u00a0<\/span>can lead to a more productive meeting<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Make sure your camera is stable and positioned at eye level so that you can be present during the meeting.<\/span>\u00a0It<\/span>\u2019<\/span>s also a great way to show everyone else that you are<\/span>n\u2019t<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>multitask<\/span>ing and giving the speaker your full, undivided attention.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
