Video Conferencing
Video conferencing continues to grow in popularity. Why is this? Some reasons are listed below:
- Communication links are now much faster thus sound quality, images etc. are now far better
- Safety reasons (increase in world-wide terrorist activity, frequent travelling etc. are all risks to company employees if they have to travel to meetings)
- costs (money saved on not having to travel, lost time to the company whilst employees are out of the office travelling to meetings, accommodation costs, etc.)
- improvements to general/work environment (employees can work from home, less travel means less stress to employees though also means less pollution, disabled employees are no longer disadvantaged etc.)
- Due to the above, it's possible to hold a meeting at short notice.
