Best Practice Series: 9 ways to use over-time virtual engagements

Virtual engagements can be endlessly customized – here are the nine most popular ways to engage groups online.

Over-time virtual meetings facilitate robust discussions, don’t require travel, and let participants contribute whenever it’s convenient for them. Within3 has years of experience helping clients choose the right approach – check out the top ways clients use over-time engagements to achieve their goals.

Single asynchronous session

Instead of inviting participants to be in the same place at the same time, hold a session over a period of days or weeks. Everyone can participate on their own schedule, from any device.

In-person meeting + session

Hold an over-time session to refine an agenda or build consensus before an in-person meeting, or after a live event to review action steps or send follow-up communications.

Webcast + session

Retain a personal element by combining a webcast with a virtual over-time session. By adding a virtual over-time session, teams ensure every voice is heard.

Expert panel

Establish a standing team of experts to provide insight with a quick turnaround. Panel members won’t need to rearrange their schedules and you’ll build trusted relationships with experts.

Steering committee

Ensure a high level of participation by eliminating scheduling obstacles and save time by disseminating schedules, agendas, and materials for review ahead of time.

Content review + collaboration

Eliminate the confusion of multiple versions by moving content review and collaboration online. Authors can review drafts or add comments in a familiar, secure format.

Content modules

Keep contributors focused and engaged by breaking up dense content into smaller modules that are released over time.

Multi-stakeholder session

Need to obtain feedback about the same subject from two different groups? In a virtual environment, each group can have a dedicated conversation or individuals can answer questions privately.

Regional session

Get a better understanding of how key issues affect stakeholders in different geographies, or leverage content created once across many regions to maximize ROI.
