Any advice for making conversations on zoom go smoother? Always feel like I’m interrupting or that the conversation is super choppy but if I pause too long after saying something sometimes it’s just awkward and silent

Give people time to speak and listen for anyone speaking up. General rule of thumb is a good 2-3 second count between sentences before reaching back out if it’s quiet. Make sure if it is “interrupting” it adds to the conversation or isn’t ruining the flow of an important topic.

If the conversation can go forward without your point being raised, it probably should.
