Plane trips. Hotel rooms. Expensive training sessions. All of these are a thing of the past with a new type of technology: webinars. Webinars are here to replace the original form of speaking presentations, and they are here to stay. These types of speaking engagements allow people to connect via the Internet as opposed to face-to-face. Participants all log in around the same time, and the presenter begins. He or she speaks to the group and encourages everyone to join along. Attendants can answer or ask questions, take surveys or take part in chats.
There are two key factors that make a webinar more enticing then a typical training seminar. First, the cost is significantly less. Companies only have to pay for their employees to attend. Some webinars also allow for businesses to make money if they recommend others. The second factor deals with employee engagement. During webinars, people are encouraged to participate and give their thoughts. At the end of the presentation, the technology lets everyone give their feedback, and speakers can evaluate where they succeeded in helping people and where they may need to change things around.
