It's Monday and time for another Effective Virtual Conversations tip. We are at tip #16 from my new book, Effective Virtual Conversations. What often gets magnified in the virtual domain is different generation's aptitude and comfort with technology. In my new book, I explore this topic more fully as it does have an impact on the levels of comfort and confidence people participate in virtual conversations of all kinds - conference calls, webinars, streaming calls. While we don't all "fit into" our typical generational patterns, it's a useful frame to consider as we think about what may be preferences and barriers for engaging and participating in virtual dialogue.
For those that already have a copy of the book, take a look at pages 45-47.
Questions to consider:
Think about an upcoming virtual conversation you are going to host. Who are the members?
What is their level of confidence and comfort with the platform you are using?
What is their preference in terms of learning styles - i.e. working in smaller groups vs larger groups?
Are they accustomed to connecting and being in dialogue with people they have never met physically before?
What other barriers may exist with their participation?
Have a great start to your week,
Jennifer
