I don’t understand why everything thinks they have to be on video for every single meeting. I never turn on my webcam. It makes no difference to the outcome of the call.
- jeffnappi 7y agoIt is most important in calls with 6+ participants. It gives folks a chance to signal that they have something to say when many times a call may be dominated by one or two individuals. Perhaps there are other approaches for that particular case such as a button to 'raise your hand', however, many people have friendly relationships with their colleagues and simply enjoy seeing them when conversing.
- redhale 7y agoA lot of information can be transmitted through non-verbal communication (e.g. facial expressions). Do you look at the faces of other people on the call with you who do have their cameras turned on? If so, why?
- dawnerd 7y agoNope since someone is usually presenting their screen anyways.
- jonny383 7y agoI guess we should all start wearing blindfolds in face-to-face meetings because it will make no difference to the outcome of the meeting.
