The key is having the comfort, strategy and skill set for to make video-based events an experience that is positive and productive, and establishes your image and reputation as a leader.

Technology - the importance of good camera angles and proper mic use
Do's and don'ts of screen-sharing, creating PPT slides to maximize engagement, etc.
Sounding natural rather than canned, especially if you have to do any asynchronous video recordings (e.g. news blasts to a larger audience that they'll watch at their convenience rather than live)
Maximizing engagement by setting behavioral expectations and managing participation for overall effectiveness.

It will be an interactive discussion with lots of time for Q&A so we can address whatever is your greatest concern and challenge about video conferences.
