Virtual meetings can be a huge time and cost saver, but the last thing you need is to be stuck on project calls that take up all day.

If you’re anything like me, I’m sure you will have been on calls where you’ve sneakily gone on mute because the meeting isn’t relevant to you, or you have nothing to add, or some other reason. While it’s better not to multi-task during a virtual meeting, and even better to not go to meetings that aren’t relevant for you, sometimes virtual meetings are a must.

You can make virtual meetings better. This quick video shares 3 easy tips for making virtual meetings that little bit more productive for everyone.

These tips came from a fantastic presentation on virtual meetings at a PMI event by Dr Penny Pullan. You can read more about that presentation here.

Virtual meetings can be a really powerful tool. It is definitely important to know how to get the most out of them. Especially when working with virtual teams. I work for a global organization and I have resources spread all over, so I'm basically almost exclusively using virtual meetings. I'm a firm believer that all PMs should be proficient at conducting virtual meetings in order to manage projects in the world today. So thanks for the great tips! I'm sure that they will benefit everyone.

Virtual meetings are a different beast, especially when they are frequent as with virtual teams.
