Remote meetings can be awkward. And the start of any virtual meeting can be totally unpredictable which creates stress and anxiety…not good for business right?

When you tune in you could be left hanging with no audio, or maybe the host leaves you in the waiting room.

Radio silence is not a good start to any meeting if you want to make a fantastic impact and first impression.

Esther Stanhope, The Impact Guru’s 20 years of broadcasting expertise (10 years at the BBC) comes in very useful here. She knows all the rules of thumb when it comes to showing up live on air. She has lots of tips and strategies to share about how to keep the audience hooked and happy.

If you’re the host , its up to you to keep the flow and make sure you create the right atmosphere for your meeting.

Is it ok to have small talk with very senior people before the meeting officially starts? Esther shares her best practice with you in this fun and practical session.

By the end of this episode, you will feel more confident and competent when you start any remote meeting. You’ll know what to do before you start, while people are tuning in and when to ‘start’ officially where you grab your audience’s attention, so they don’t tune out.
