Welcome back to Day 65 of the Daily Author Reading Series for Effective Virtual Conversations. Thanks for joining us. Today we are exploring one of the central themes of this book – creating engagement and capturing attention. With group members likely moving from Zoom call to Zoom call, being able to signal that this is a different call, is important. In today’s reading I pick up on page 185 and 186, focusing on the Accordion principle to design, as well as Design Dos and Don’ts around Questioning and Storytelling. What are the things you might want to expand if the conversation is moving along? What are the things you might want to collapse? If you enjoyed today’s author reading, be sure to pick up a copy of Effective Virtual Conversations at Amazon. Best, Jennifer Jennifer Britton
