I initially thought video calls would be great, and they are for certain tasks.

For building relationships or handling high-attention matters, nothing beats a personal meeting.

When using video calls, it's crucial to keep the participant list to the essentials to ensure productivity.

One challenge I faced recently was dealing with multiple platforms. I had four video calls yesterday, each on a different platform. By the end of the day, I was completely mixed up!

The platforms I used included Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Webex, Amazon Chime, GoToMeeting, RingCentral, and FreeConferenceCall, just to name a few.

It can get quite overwhelming managing so many options!
