Planning for Effective Facilitation of Virtual Meetings

When facilitating a virtual stakeholder meeting it is important that facilitators consider the meeting from the experience of participants:

• What will participants need to have and know prior to the meeting?
• What will they need to be able to see, hear, and do during the meeting?

This resource aims to help facilitators review technical considerations they plan a virtual stakeholder meeting that fully and effectively engages participants. This checklist includes technical considerations for scheduling, staffing, selecting tools and activities, practicing, and reviewing input after the event.
