cbabyIt’s been a tough few weeks. You’ve been working hard, and you deserve a break. So why not take a break in the form of a virtual meeting?

So whether you need to catch up on your emails or take care of some business, a virtual meeting is the perfect way to do it. Let us help you set one up today!

Guidelines
When starting a virtual meeting, follow these guidelines to create a respectful and productive experience for all participants.
1. Define the purpose of the meeting: What are you hoping to achieve by convening? This will help you focus your discussion.
2. Set ground rules: Establish who can speak, when they can speak, how long each person has for their comments, and any other rules that need to be followed in order to keep the conversation on track.
3. Respect everyone’s time: Keep discussions concise and avoid going off on tangents. Everyone deserves an equal opportunity to speak and no one should feel rushed or left out.
4. Be aware of your surroundings: Make sure that you’re aware of any visual distractions (e.g., people walking by outside the window, people talking in the next room) so that you don’t miss anything important happening in the meeting.
5. Be considerate of others: If someone is speaking but seems uncomfortable or overwhelmed, give them a break or step in if necessary to ensure that their voice is heard. Remember that everyone is feeling some degree of anxiety or stress at any given time; try not to add to it!
Attendees
Attendees at the closing prayer for the virtual meeting were from around the world. They came from different denominations and faiths, but all of them shared one common goal: to continue the conversation started in the meeting.
Notes
Notes:
1. Before the meeting begins, everyone should say a closing prayer.
2. The meeting should be ended with a closing prayer.
3. After the meeting is over, remember to thank everyone for attending and then say a closing prayer.
Closing Prayer
We come together in prayer to end this virtual meeting on a positive note. We ask for God’s grace and mercy as we let go of each other. In His light, we will face the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. Amen.
