Hi there,?
From what I understand, there is consultant pricing that varies depending on your business. Currently there is free use for anyone (including self employed consultants) to support the conversations that need to happen due to COVID-19.?
You are correct that the cost is in the thousands for a license.?
Here is an example of the I generated from our pre-meeting exchange. I clicked a button to develop it. I like the instant feedback it can generate for participants.?
Tomorrow is about playing, testing and learning. I am also interested to understand how and when to use the tool in order to add value to my work and that of my clients. As well, given the need to move online rapidly I'm looking for ways to engage and source information from the group that are novel and quick. ?
If you are joining tomorrow - please try and join from your computer and also have a mobile device so we can try some things with the mobile phone as well. ?
The .?
For anyone that can't join, I will write up a summary of the experience after!?

Re: Looking for Folks Who Can Run Online Capacity Building Sessions in 3 particular areas.
Hi Nancy¡ª my expertise is conflict transformation. I¡¯d be happy to discuss and explore!?
Hi all
I'm working with a couple of networks who have to move specific types of group meetings online and I'd like to connect them with folks with that specific skill - or even better, who can help people build their own skills. The two areas are:
- Conflict resolution - the specific context is ecosystem work with multiple/diverse stakeholders. So work continues, conflict continues and they can't wait to meet F2F in some unspecified future. We'd like to offer a short online training to help them work through this. This is hopefully a paid gig. I'm working on that now.
- Community Consultation - again, in an ecocosystems context, projects need consultations complete before next phases. The phases appear to be pretty fixed so again, people can't wait to do the stakeholder consultations F2F. This is hopefully a paid gig.?
- Finally, people with general expertise on designing and facilitating engaging online meetings that include breakouts on tools OTHER THAN ZOOM. I'm trying to put together a couple of sessions to expand some of the cool things we have done in zoom into other platforms. This probably starts as a free offering and you could easily build it into a paid gig... there IS demand!
If you have this experience, please email me directly (And you might also want to put it into the spreadsheet here noting your particular expertise as I think there will be more demand: --->?

Re: How to optimise Host view on Zoom
Thank you all for all your wonderful input - will definitely continue to have a play around and try your suggestions :-)

One thing that might help: on your Participants and Chat windows, before you start screen sharing, there's a little dropdown at the top where you can select "Pop Out". When you set those windows to "Pop Out" (vs "Merge to Meeting Window") then when you start sharing, those windows will stay on top and visible.

Hello everyone.
This is the first time I have posted but I have loved being a silent part of this group and have learnt greatly from the interactions. I work for the National Health Service in England as part of a team called NHS Horizons?? We are facilitating many nationwide virtual sessions as part of the NHS response to Covid-19. Our biggest one was nearly 900 people that was on WebEx, live streamed on YouTube which was for the community of those who support the health and wellbeing of our NHS people. We are learning so much.
I just wanted to flag a beautiful new resource. Julian Stodd has created a "remote working survival guide". It is based on the metaphor of an expedition into the wilderness. It has beautiful hand drawn pictures and has a spiritual quality in the way that it connects with emotions and values. You can download it for free but you have to give an email address:??
Thank you for this wonderful community.

Re: Verizon just bought Bluejeans
This is super interesting.?
Amazing how markets change on a dime in crisis contexts. I suspect a new emerging skill for online facilitators is their ability to move good online engagement process through different tool sets. As orgs "harden" into a single choice, this also has huge implications for cross org collaboration (I worry about that.)?
Is there anyone here who is tracking the access/inclusion issues about who doesn't have access to these tools? Again, another area of needed, emerging expertise.?
Thanks

Re: How to optimise Host view on Zoom
On YouTube, if you search for Yoga with Adrienne [] she has a number of shorter practices as well as longer ones. ?I know nothing about yoga; however I like her personality. ?I¡¯m sure there are lots of similar YouTube clips. ?Tried this as an experiment and it seemed to work! ?You just need to set your Zoom call to use computer audio when you are showing videos.

Re: How to optimise Host view on Zoom
Hello I have been doing Zoom meeting extensively in the last month.. of course. The best way to experiement with it is to schedule a test run with trusted colleagues ?and PLAN your test . Here is : each slide I shared was a test and I commented ans asked questions to participants to see what they were seeing. It is iin French but you will see the gist of it.? That way you can play with the control in the SETTING panel of zoom. I use the dual monitor system and this might be a boon or a bane. I also show a dew slides at the beginning to make people aware of some technical ascpet of ZOOM and to mask for cooperation and tolerance from their part as we are all learning and experimenting together. Feel free to Zoom me is you want to make tests!!! flavallee@...? -- Francois Lavallee , M.Sc. Organizational biologist

Upcoming Event: Exploration of Online Crowdsourcing Tool - Fri, 04/17/2020 8:00am-9:30am
#cal-reminder
Reminder: Exploration of Online Crowdsourcing Tool
When:
Friday, 17 April 2020, 8:00am to 9:30am,
(GMT-07:00) America/Los Angeles
Where:https://us04web.zoom.us/j/101122627?pwd=MEcvSkN0MVJKcHBaMzJwUlFsU2ZMUT09
View Event
Organizer: Michelle Laurie and William Aal
Description: What are people thinking right now? What do people care about? What is the next idea?
Come and experiment with an online crowd sourcing tool that gathers and sorts/prioritizes ideas online in real time (or asynchronously).?
You can check out Thought Exchange here:?
(Note: we do not work for them. We are curious about the tool and its being offered free right now for COVID-19 support).
RSVP via EVENT BRITE Please so we know how many people to expect!?
|
Pardon my ignorance, but when I did a call with the Thought Exchange sales people they said the tool cost thousands of dollars. Is there a version a solo practitioner/consultant could use, or is it just the enterprise version?
I¡¯m eager to join this gathering, but if the tool costs that much, I couldn¡¯t use it.?
