Thanks so much for downloading On The Fly! This is episode 7 with Sarah Gershman – you’ll notice she doesn’t zone out once during this pod chat! And that's because she is an Executive Speech Coach and Presentation Skills Trainer in Washington, D.C. You can find her online here: https://www.greenroomspeakers.com/ No matter who or where you are right now, a big chunk of the last few months has probably been spent talking to people on a screen through Zoom, Skype, FaceTime and any number of video chat apps… And on the plus side, no doubt they’ve saved our sanity (as well as our businesses) but it’s exhausting… especially for work where it’s less about the chat and more about concentration and productivity. And so if you relate to any of that I think you’ll enjoy this chat… Sarah wrote an article about this for The Harvard Business Review, called “Stop Zoning out on Zoom” – and it was a real eye opener for me and I had to know more. In this conversation Sarah expands on the topics in her articles (she also wrote another about conference calls) and talks about hosts, and participants can get more out of video and conference calls and I hope you’ll find it really helpful.
