COVID-19 Weekly Brief: Behaviour and Etiquette for Remote Meetings

What is appropriate behaviour and etiquette in remote meetings and how can scrutiny and governance be maintained whilst working remotely? Deborah Evans, Ed Hammond, and Philip McCourt consider best practice for remote meetings.

As everybody is embracing different ways of working due to the COVID-19 pandemic it is essential to promote and establish appropriate behaviour and etiquette for everybody participating in remote meetings. There are many sensible and seemingly obvious do's and dont's to observe in order to to ensure meetings do take place, run smoothly providing opportunities to participate where appropriate, are productive and effective, and result in appropriate actions and decisions. However, there are many considerations to ensure the correct scrutiny and governance is in place throughout a remote meeting.
