  • A meeting

  • When you are in middle of an important meeting and the lights suddenly go off, your reaction can be positive at first.
  • When it happened to me a few a months ago, I showed surprise and laughed like everyone else.
    • Then, as the minutes go by, we started to think that maybe the light went out for a serious reason, which could mean having to put off the meeting or look for another place to finish it.
    • In both cases, it meant that most of us won’t be able to make it to the airport in time.
  • Another day here would disrupt our fixed plans.
  • So we decided to postpone the meeting and hold it through video conferencing, at least for those who had a very full agenda.
  • The experience turned out to be better than we thought.
  • Video conferencing hadn’t been our first choice; we didn’t believe it could ever replace a meeting face to face.
  • In fact, the meeting went so well that we decided to hold most meetings through video conferencing.
  • From now on, we would only meet twice a year to fix and discuss the business strategy.
  • Since then, things have been going smoothly and thanks to this new way of working we don’t waste time chatting but go down to business straight away, we save a lot money to the company in hotels and transport and we can enjoy more time with our families.
  • The downside is that maybe we are losing that friendship we had and all the things we could tell each other informally.
