Videoconferencing etiquette and best practices

Videoconferencing will continue to be a regular part of business interaction for the future. Prepare your environment for a professional and distraction-free experience for you and those you are meeting with, and demonstrate your professional presence in a virtual environment

using protocol to build partnerships

Protocol is not just for diplomats or military service members. Key elements of protocol are necessary for managing meetings, signing ceremonies, events, and other activities in a variety of industries, particularly when engaging with partners from different cultures. Equip your team with the knowledge to manage interactions and build relationships successfully.

Managing virtual events and c-suite meetings

Meetings between executive leaders of multiple organizations. Signing ceremonies and partnership agreements. Panel discussions among industry experts. These are just a few of the activities and events that are increasingly common in the virtual world. Learn best practices for how to prepare your principal, ensure that your event is professional, and avoid “meeting bombing” and other virtual headaches that detract from your goals.

communicating across cultures

Culture is about much more than where we were born or where we live; it is a complex pattern of values, beliefs, and assumptions that influence how we behave and communicate with others. Learn about key dimensions of culture that affect our work relationships and how to bridge gaps to build trust and achieve goals together.
