Sharing your message with as many people as possible has never been easier now that StartMeeting includes a built-in Radio function. Radio allows you to stream your message to listeners across the world directly from your Meeting Wall – without the risk of interruptions or the hassle of moderating thousands of participants.
With Radio, anyone with your Meeting Wall URL may access your online audio stream. Best of all, this service is free and set up takes only a few minutes.
It strikes at the worst time possible. Your presentation is coming up, and your palms are getting sweaty. Public speaking is a notoriously stress-inducing exercise, and at some point, we all feel those pre-performance jitters. Earlier this month, we saw presentation anxiety at its worst when world-renowned director Michael Bay left the stage following a teleprompter malfunction at a recent press event. Other celebrities, including Barbara Streisand, Maya Angelou, and Grammy Award-winning singer Adele, have also suffered with bouts of stage fright.
Fortunately, there's plenty of ways to alleviate your anxiety before your next big meeting. Learn from other's mistakes, consider our suggestions below, and get those nerves in check.
In today's fast-paced work environment, it can be easy to dismiss the value of direct communication. Whether you're connecting via telephone, web conference, in the conference room or around the water cooler, you can improve workplace productivity by sprucing up your listening skills.
1. Create a Sharing Environment
Great listeners know the key to effective communication is being open and approachable. Foster better communication in your office by taking the time to listen to your co-workers without interrupting their train of thought. Not only are you improving workplace communication, you're also fostering a sense of transparency that builds trust and boosts company morale.
Ever try to find that specific brilliant insight, or even just ONE relevant comment within the recording of an hours-long conference call? It can be kind of a nightmare, right? Well fortunately for you (and your sanity), we’ve partnered with VoiceBase to deploy a new Conference Keywords tool.
This opt-in service will help you search spoken keywords as you would text in a digital document. It’s sort of like the classic "CTRL+F" for your calls, but even better. Why? Because our technology does all the work analyzing which phrases were "key" to the overall conversation, and then provides you a phrase list in an email once the call is complete. That list of terms then links to the associated parts of your recording, saving you loads of time in "skipping to the good parts" when revisiting the call.
Our International service just got better! We now offer online meetings with FreeConferenceCall International, providing users with a free feature designed for screen sharing, web conferencing, product demonstrations, webinars and more. This new tool includes a free screen sharing service allowing hosts to share their computer screen during their live conference calls.
