Making Sure Your Employees Have The Best View And Sound At Your Corporate Meeting

Posted on

If you own your own large company, and you are planning on hosting a corporate meeting in the near future, chances are that you want your employees to pay attention to the information you will be providing to them during this event. If employees are unable to hear or see the material you are providing, they will most likely become frustrated and will not be able to grasp the concepts you wish for them to learn. Here are some tips you can use to ensure that your staff is engaged to the fullest with the right props and placement to see and hear adequately.

Consider Using Projection Equipment To Enlarge Material

Rather than getting up at a podium to speak about sales or plans for your business, use a slide show presentation via your laptop computer to give visuals to your employees about the material you wish to discuss. It is important to have charts, timelines, or lists of the objectives you wish to discuss and share with your staff, as this is likely to help keep them interested during the meeting. It will also make the information you are conveying easier to understand. Use a projector to enlarge your computer screen in front of the meeting area so all who are present are able to view it from their seating area. Make sure that the projector is lifted high enough that there are no shadows from those viewing the material so there is a clear view from every angle of the room.

Place Speakers In The Room To Amplify Sound

If you want your points to be heard, speakers will be a necessity in a room full of employees. Renting amplification equipment will make your meeting feel professional, as all who are spectating will be drawn to the person holding the microphone at any given time. This will help clear up confusion as to who is speaking, helping those present to focus upon the information being provided, as they will be able to hone in on the speaker's gestures to enhance the points being made. Speakers should be placed in each corner of the room for the best sound quality. Make sure presenters know how to work the microphone in advance of their performances to avoid feedback and embarrassment.

Make Sure Overcrowding And Obstructions Aren't A Concern

Do not try fitting your employees into a space that is too small for their comfort. They will be likely to complain about the temperature and the lack of view or sound within the room instead of paying attention to the material being provided. It is best to have a seat available for each employee present rather than having people stand during the event. Make sure there is adequate room between chairs so the employees can shift around in their seating without bothering the person next to them. It is a good idea to sit in each chair before the event to see what view the employee will have of the focal point. Move chairs without a full view of the area to maximize the experience for these employees.
