  24. PA Challenges How do you… • Overcome geographical constraints in an immediate and flexible manner? • Find an easier way to schedule and change at short notice multiple meetings in a day? • Enable your manager to get their team to focus on the issues together in real-time?

  25. Larger scale more formal meetings • Communicating and interacting with large numbers of people • Organisation change • Financial announcements • Training sessions Audio – flexible to PAs’ needs • Your own personal meeting room • Weekly team meetings • Impromptu meetings • Project & status meetings • Management updates

  26. Web Conferencing – Engage with your audience • Used to complement Audio and Video Conferencing • Share, amend or present anything from your desktop • Scalable from 2 to 2,500 people • Real-time • Instant feedback All you need is a PC with internet connection – launch from Outlook

  27. Video Conferencing • Face-to-face without physically being there • When only a face-to-face meeting will do • Meeting new colleagues or customers or suppliers • More personalised meetings around the globe • Large events or conferences where you can have video streaming to allow people to watch the event when they can’t physically attend

  28. Key benefits of Conferencing for PAs Easy to get colleagues together around the world and country or company Easier to change and arrange multiple meetings in a day than if you were physically constrained by amending flights / trains / hotels bookings Enables your manager to have their virtual team focus on the same issue at the same time Dedicated event and account managers to take the organisational pressure away from you More cost efficient as no venue and travel costs – budget focus Green focus – reducing carbon emissions
