Virtual Meetings Are Just Like Real Meetings

looorg writes:

Turns out that virtual meetings are more or less just like real meetings. A lot of people arrive late. Most people don't say or do anything, they are just there. The more people that are invited to the meeting the worse it apparently is. Bad meetings are bad meetings no matter if they are live or not.

For meetings with seven or more people, some of the findings include:

50% of participants arrive late
40% have below average or poor engagement
22% of participants don't say a single word
11% don't have video or audio on

Overall, one in five video conference calls had a below average meeting score, and 31% of meetings start late.
