Running & Participating in Virtual Meetings

Key Points:

• Ask if a meeting is truly needed, and clarify its goal and your role before joining;
• Leaders should start strong, guide participation, and end with clear next steps;
• Sharing an agenda and monitoring group energy fosters better collaboration;
• Participants can show value by staying present, speaking up when needed, and signaling engagement;
• A short follow-up or recap keeps decisions and actions from getting lost.
