VIDEO CONFERENCING

The way we live today and travel to meet face-to-face is not sustainable. Throughout the world, leaders, organisations and individuals are carefully considering the impact of carbon emissions on the environment. Video communication provides an alternative to air and road travel and can be part of an environmental carbon offset or reduction initiative. Today’s IT manager is working to track miles travelled by the organisation and how this can be reduced or offset by other collaboration tools.
If your business has multiple offices, you may have to occasionally partake in conference calls or regional meetings in which multiple members of the team have to travel to a specific location to take part. Often there will be a certain amount of paperwork which must be distributed beforehand. Think of how much time and money you could save if you were able to have most of your meetings via video, with all relevant information displayed on the screen and a true interactivity among the people at different locations. Video conferencing can allow users to see and hear all points raised as well as any information that you choose to display. All without travel or excessive preparation beforehand.
Just as video conferencing can assist you with inter-office meetings and conference calls, it can also make dealing with business partners, investors, and those potentially interested in your company much easier… especially if those partners are located abroad or have a business office that isn’t close to your central office. By utilising video conferencing you can discuss important business matters without having to schedule meetings and arrange travel.
Video conferencing eliminates costs, headaches, and hassles associated with gathering employees together for meetings. Decisions can be reached more quickly, reduced travel time and therefore reduced travelling expenses, and employees are more productive. Video conferencing benefits everyone involved, and it also benefits your bottom line.
