I lead a webinar called How to Look Better, Feel More Comfortable and Be More Productive When Video Conferencing and something that’s brought up by a lot of executives, salespeople, and entrepreneurs I’m talking to is Zoom fatigue.

 

Today I want to talk about why and how Zoom fatigue happens as well as five easy ways to nip it in the bud.



5 Tips to avoid video call fatigue

 

Stop staring at yourself — You look fine, you sound fine, use the app’s functionality to only see others in the call

 

Take a break between calls — schedule a 10-15-minute break between calls, get up, and walk around.

 

Go audio-only, try the Walk-N-Talk and really try to stick to the timing of the call.
