Today I hosted a LinkedIn webinar with Nick Nguyen and 60 live attendees. My first time doing a 100% online workshop like this. Here’s what surprised me:
– MORE people engaged with me in the online version, than when I did it in-person. People are less shy to write in the text box or DM you, as opposed to putting up their hand or walking up to you in a classroom.
– People really loved the poll 📊 feature. Definitely incorporate these into your webinars. It’s like when a teacher asks you to “raise your hand if you agree…” in a classroom. People are conditioned to respond and feel good participating.
I guess that online workshops can sometimes be superior to in-person versions 🤷♂️. Especially if you’re teaching a digital skill where screen-sharing is more efficient.
The result? Check out some of my our role model profiles below:
– Aymen Saqib + Jamie La
Definitely beat my profile from when I was in 2nd year!
Thanks Brad Wells, Harsimran Walia, and the Ted Rogers School of Management for hosting me!
