Can you hear me now? Effective Virtual Interactions

In today's increasingly virtual world, effective communication often falls short, leading to counterproductive interactions. This lesson focuses on the challenges of virtual interactions and presents strategies to improve them through experiential learning. By delving into various interaction theories, including Group Support Systems and Social Information Processing, participants will engage in practical exercises like Voting Before Discussing (VBD) to enhance decision-making while maintaining relationships. Join us to transform your virtual communication practices and learn how to create more meaningful interactions.
