video meetings are great and all but ...
There is no denying that video meetings have taken over our lives to the point that advertisements and skit comedy have driven home in seemingly every media space we visit. Bare legs topped with a button down shirt have become the new corporate wardrobe, whether in our collective mind or in the reality of our home offices. While video is a great tool for maintaining connections and collaborating with your team, it is no replacement for the real thing. In-person meetings allow for better team bonding, an easier flow of creative ideas, and an overall superior collaborative exchange.
Researchers at Harvard University have published many studies speaking to the effectiveness of in-person negotiations. Their reports show better overall outcomes for both parties and a greater sense of trust that starts with the very first handshake (no word yet on the comparative value of a fist bump or elbow tap).
Meeting in person also eliminates the problems with failed technology, internet disruptions, and poor audio or video connections. While the world grapples with when, if, and how we return to a more normal in-person state of business, video meetings remain the norm for much of the work force today.
