FLIP the Phone Meeting Using Walk & Talk - Dr. Lodge McCammon

Описание: http://lodgemccammon.com/kinesthetics...

This is how I FLIP phone meetings using the walk and talk strategy.

After scheduling a phone meeting, I create a quick outline of the information that I intend to contribute to the conversation. Once that outline is complete, I record a short video where I talk through the main points in the outline, providing context and background information. This video can be 25-75% shorter than delivering the same information live over the phone. It’s a much more efficient way of delivering meeting information.

Once the video is complete, I watch it back to make note of strengths and weaknesses in my presentation. This helps me continuously improve my communication skills, and also allows me to experience the presentation from the perspective of my audience.

Then, I email the video to the other meetings participants, asking them to view it some time before the call, and to make note of any and all questions or comments.

Now that the basic information has been delivered in advance, we use our phone meeting time to share responses, discuss deeper-level questions and collaborate to solve problems. But the best part of a flipped phone meeting is that I am able to untether myself from my computer and my notes...all the information I needed to say has already been delivered.

So, during the phone call I use the Walk & Talk strategy to active my brain and create a healthy work environment. I walk while listening to the responses from my teammates, answering questions, and contributing to the conversation. If I need to make a note, I stop, add some text to a document on my phone, and then continue walking.

Not only are these meetings healthier and more productive, but they end up being about half as long as non-flipped phone meetings.
