Just because working from home wasn’t enough of a challenge, you now routinely find yourself in front of your laptop camera trying to appear natural and confident as you present to the board, inspire your team, or practice your newly pivoted company’s on-line offerings. It’s likely not what you thought you signed up for.
In our recent Experts in Residence session, Communications & Creativity – Sandbox had the pleasure of inviting Jan Bailey and Shona Welsh of Ovation Speaker Training to deliver expertise on the top three on-camera tips to help you ACE your next online meeting. Leveling up your on-camera performance may seem like a daunting, maybe even annoying task, but what a difference it can make!
