Golden Rules for Remote Meetings

ICreated by Ingrid Halvorsen

At Northlight, the essence of an online meeting is to behave exactly as you would in person. A virtual meeting deserves the same respect, attention and professionalism.

If you organise the meeting

  • โ€ขShare an agenda page at least one day in advance.
  • โ€ขOpen with the decision you need, not the history.
  • โ€ขEnd five minutes early and publish the notes the same day.

If you attend

  • โ€ขCamera on for meetings of six people or fewer.
  • โ€ขComment on the agenda beforehand if you cannot attend.
  • โ€ขOne conversation at a time โ€” side threads go to the page comments.

A meeting without notes on a page never happened.
