Best Practices Webinar – Robbie Samuels

No Room for Bad Zoom – Robbie Samuels – NEW DATE

Participants were forgiving when the pandemic began and events quickly shifted online, but now they realize that “bad Zoom” is the cause of their “Zoom fatigue.” It’s time to think differently. Instead of trying to replicate in-person events, let’s reimagine them to meet the needs of participants. We invited Robbie Samuels to share his personal evolution from speaking on stage to online. He’s a virtual event design consultant and executive Zoom producer who has hosted or presented at nearly 100 virtual events, including a weekly #NoMoreBadZoom Virtual Happy Hour he’s hosted since March 13, 2020. He will share:

• The ingredients and skills necessary for designing an engaging online experience.
• The importance of identifying the purpose of your event.
• What it means to think cinematic rather than theatrical.
• Why it is important to get 5% better every time you host or present an online event.

Attend this session and you’ll receive Robbie’s #NoMoreBadZoom Settings Checklist so you’re ready to try out the techniques he shares.
