Post event follow up Send a Thank You Email for Feedback. Don’t forget that an important part of meeting follow-up is checking in with attendees about how well the meeting went. Send a thank you email or call to request feedback. It might seem redundant, but participants will appreciate the courtesy, and it will give them an opportunity to provide candid feedback. Best Practices While different meetings will have different “rules,” there are some basic online meeting etiquette practices: • Start early and start interacting. Have session lines open at least 15 minutes prior to the start time to get the team prepared. Don’t miss a chance to connect with attendees – engaging in small talk helps people to feel connected. • Don’t have side conversations. • Avoid noisy activities like typing while the microphone is on. • Don’t stare at any other communication devices while others are presenting. • Don’t interrupt others when they’re speaking (or attempt to speak over them). • Read the agenda and come prepared. • Don’t work on other tasks (like checking email) during the virtual meeting. • Turn off all notifications. Silence cell phones. • Consider propping up your computer with books to raise the camera level. • Make sure all team members are in a quiet area free from unnecessary distraction. • Rehearse, rehearse, rehearse.
