As consultants and trainers, you probably conduct a lot of webinars. And I’m sure you’ve sat through your share of them too. They are great for training, communications, and marketing. But have you ever thought about what makes some webinars great and others, well, suck?

Joining me for this video is James Thacker. James is a corporate certification trainer. In other words, James trains other trainers on how to be better trainers.

James shares with me 5 tips to turn ordinary webinars into highly effective communication and training tools. They are:

  1. Use a co-presenter or moderator
  2. Utilize the interactivity tools
  3. Engage the 3 different learning styles
  4. Apply immediate application
  5. Facilitate – don’t present

Follow his advise so your webinars represent you in the best possible light, are engaging and effective, and don’t… suck.
