When Covid-19 brought all in-person events to a screeching halt, events became synonymous with virtual events. By now, you likely have Zoom basics down. The problem is that basic skills are not enough to stand out as a top-notch virtual presenter. You don't need a high-tech recording studio with a green screen, hair light (that's a real thing), and fancy software to level up your Zoom game. Focus on improving your technique rather than your technology. Break Out of Boredom will help you design transformative, inclusive, and engaging online experiences. Your message may not get across if you do not provide a thoughtful participant experience design that focuses on intentional engagement. All too often, traditional event design, particularly in a virtual setting, benefits the loudest, most confident, and most experienced participants.
