Over the past year, many of us have had to make major shifts in the way we do business. As nutrition professionals, we have adapted to reaching and communicating to our clients and our teams through virtual channels out of necessity. With mandated social-distancing and canceled in-person events, what was once an alternative approach for meetings, classes, and conferences, has become our primary channel. Even though in-person events will eventually make a comeback, virtual presentation are here to stay. This webinar is designed to prepare leaders of virtual meetings and virtual presenters how to design an effective virtual presentation, demonstrate the tools and technology that can elevate one's virtual presence, keep audiences engaged, and lead to a more effective meeting and/or presentation.
