#270: Behavioral Health Marketing Secrets for Engaging Virtual Events
As a business leader you know that conferences are extremely valuable for your organization’s growth and performance. These are opportunities to expand your employees’ knowledge and skills, connect with industry leaders, and build camaraderie with colleagues. The more inspiring your training is – which is largely virtual these days – the greater your talent retention and growth of your ROI.
But your people experience “ZOOM fatigue” regardless of which online platform you’re using.
I equate it to a Turkish prison visit. Your people are imprisoned at home remotely connecting through the virtual plexiglass divider. Captivating your audience’s attention online is vexing, especially when they’re wearing multiple hats of caregiver, educator, employee and warden.
