Presenting on a video call? Pick one person on the client side, pin them so they’re full screen, and just present to them. They won’t know it but everybody on the call will think you’ve finally managed to sort through your anxiety and become a great presenter.

That's a great tip. I would also add that attention spans on zoom are half what they are in the room so present half the slides and strip out half the details and your presentation will have the right amount of depth for the remote world.

I’d venture to say that attention spans are the same and it’s only on video meetings that many are finally realizing they shouldn’t ever have rolled up with 90 slides. It takes more work to communicate a lot in a short amount of time. It’s worth the work!

That’s a great tip. I don’t find I have the anxiety, but I’m horrible with looking up and over my screen or anywhere else in the room

I have one pro bono case that I kept when I left my firm to go in house.

I’ve made clear to my client that I’m repping this client in my personal capacity. No one has asked me specifically about pro bono stuff at my company - if I know there’s no conflict of interest, is this something I should disclose? To whom should I disclose this?

Hello Fishes,
I am much stressed.. it’s only been 5 months to join Capgemini. I joined in as cyber security consultant with good package.
However, the work I do the tricks, logics and solutions I share with team to apply in the project… all are of no use when discussed with the architect guy. The whole team rely upon the wordings/solutions suggested by him only. It feels like my skill/knowledge and experience is of no use.
I feel like what am I doing here….? Any suggestions please.
