Holding business meetings and training via the internet has gained enormous popularity in recent years. Although the drawbacks of this are varied, in my opinion, the benefits are greater.
On the one hand, conducting meetings and training sessions online may have some major disadvantages. The initially, the drawback is the technical limitations that participants may have, which may reduce the effectiveness of discussions or meetings. For example, the elderly may find it hard to understand and make use of the latest programs and software. In additional, the signal of internet devices may be interrupted at any time which cause by unexpected reasons. As a result, it wastes time and energy of people then become an ineffective meetings or trainings. The second disadvantage is the lack of face-to-face interaction which is often considered as the key to a successful meeting or training session. There would be some misunderstandings between people due to the indirect meeting.
However, I am convinced that the advantages of virtual meetings are more significant. Compared to traditional face-to-face meetings, those held online consumes much less time and money. In the past, attendants had to make long trips just to meet with other employees from other branches, however with online meetings, all team members can join the conference from any place, without the need to travel. Another advantage of online communication is that members who join meetings and training can share and organise files and presentations easily and conveniently. The files can also be edited or revised by other members, facilitating collaboration within the whole team.
In conclusion, it seems that the merits of virtual meetings and trainings are more significant than the downsides.
