11:10:54 From Shannon McInnes - PolicyWise to Everyone : Good morning from Edmonton, Alberta. Challenge moving to virtual: amount of time is reduced due to fatigue and tech problems vs. in person. Also, doing virtual work with NEW partnerships is different and more challenging than established ones.
11:10:57 From Anita Quach to Everyone : Hi - from Alberta Blue Cross. Missing connections and conversations in person, brainstorming online is very different!
11:11:01 From Heather Dewar to Everyone : Ottawa / Algonquin Anishnaabeg traditional territory. Find being online all the time a bit of a corona-coaster (up and down)

11:14:19 From Mary PIckering to Everyone : There was an ask about the next five-year Brokering Better Partnership Course - we will send information after this call for the next session in June, or check back at:
11:14:21 From Mary PIckering to Everyone : https://jsdaw.com/training
11:15:23 From Mary PIckering to Everyone : Sorry - that's a four day course given over one month. Not five years!
11:15:36 From Kate Potter to Everyone : I am the 'other' - we were already online (not transitioning too) but everyone is missing the annual year event
11:16:20 From INTONOVUS Canada to Everyone : not enough body language
11:16:50 From Kate Potter to Everyone : easier when you use video
11:16:52 From Shannon McInnes - PolicyWise to Everyone : About the same but with different challenges for each
11:16:53 From INTONOVUS Canada to Everyone : dancing with my shoulders ;-)
11:16:54 From Heidi Braun - IDRC to Everyone : maybe it's that it's different... and that we need to know new ways to build trust.
11:16:57 From Cheryl Newton-Skirrow ESCC to Everyone : All of us 'faking' our appearance with a pleasant video background
11:17:16 From Jody Wolfe to Everyone : @Lori - I have realized I now gesticulate near my ears to get that body language in LOL
11:17:40 From fawna.bews@albertahealthservices.ca to Everyone : As a quieter person I notice that the phenomenon of 'loudest, fastest voice' is even bigger and that you need to have strategies to get every voice.
11:17:59 From Jenny Park to Everyone : I sometimes focus more on my video and lighting than the meeting. As well as MS teams notifications popping up make it difficult to focus on the meeting
11:18:10 From INTONOVUS Canada to Everyone : @jody LOL LOL
11:18:23 From Ivan Sierralta to Everyone : I love that physical disabilities are completely out of the picture, not an issue
11:20:01 From Tim Henderson to Everyone : Facilitates conversations that couldn't otherwise happen because of crazy busy schedules and the challenges of distance. Speed will vary depending on opportunities to connect.
11:28:07 From Jocelyne Daw to Kristen(Direct Message) : Hey Kristen - we see you are struggling to get audio.  Try to our and rejoining.
11:31:12 From Stephanie Schurr to Everyone : He did great :)
11:31:46 From INTONOVUS Canada to Everyone : More global partnerships brewing
11:31:51 From Katrina Secord to Everyone : Learned new connection tricks! :)
11:31:53 From David Lee to Everyone : COVID prompting new partnerships and/or accelerating some…
11:32:07 From Katrina Bradley to Everyone : Intentionally taking breaks in days between meetings now that everything is online or by phone - since we used to walk or drive to meetings and had that “downtime”
11:32:12 From Janet - Alberta Law Foundation to Everyone : facilitating work across the province and actually allowing face to face interaction which wouldn't otherwise be possible!
11:32:22 From fawna.bews@albertahealthservices.ca to Everyone : Katrina - yes!
11:32:40 From INTONOVUS Canada to Everyone : Producing meetings vs hosting
11:32:48 From Ivan Sierralta to Everyone : There is increased convenience some added inclusivity.  I have seen difficulty with stakeholder engagement highlighting inequities (access to internet, computers, etc).
11:32:52 From Madeline V. to Everyone : For us, we talked about the lack of movement, how it's affecting our bodies by sitting more. We also talked about tricks like looking at the camera, versus down because we don't know if someone is distracted or are just taking notes. We also talked about trying to get validation from others on video.
11:32:54 From Cheryl Newton-Skirrow ESCC to Everyone : Travel time saved has been replace by much more planning time.
11:33:08 From Mariam Elghahuagi to Everyone : It feels like we can do more and get together at a drop of a hat, which allow us to leverage opportunities more
11:33:11 From Jenny Park to Everyone : Valuing attendance at meetings because there are so many!
11:33:23 From Tim Henderson to Everyone : There is a downside - people planning back to back meetings and dashing off without really being finished the previous conversation...
11:33:23 From Monique (she/her) to Everyone : Opportunity to include more people in a meeting.
11:33:44 From Amy Morin to Everyone : Technology issues in rural alberta
11:33:46 From Buffy StAmand to Everyone : flattening the organization and provide more people to take part in discussions
11:33:47 From Cheryl Newton-Skirrow ESCC to Everyone : Engagement tools (breakouts, sticky notes, etc.) so important.
11:33:49 From Bethany White to Everyone : I've been able to participate in learning opportunities that are regional or national in scope that would not have been possible before because of travel needs/costs
11:33:53 From Craig Barabash to Everyone : start earlier .. end later ..need those personal breaks for well-ness and being "fresh" on calls!
11:34:00 From Rachel Nelson to Everyone : Ways to build relationships between participants in larger groups
11:34:08 From INTONOVUS Canada to Everyone : Have to admit I have been in 2-3 meetings at once a few times!
11:34:10 From z business to Everyone : I learn many new tech tools to do the work virtually
11:34:12 From Kate Potter to Everyone : contributions relate to their comfort level on the platform
11:34:24 From Kim to Everyone : need for better technology to integrate hybrid in-person/remote meetings once some return to offices
11:34:50 From Jody Wolfe to Everyone : Great point @Kim
11:35:01 From Ivan Sierralta to Everyone : ditto
11:35:15 From Cheryl Newton-Skirrow ESCC to Everyone : Backup planning for the common technical difficulty blow outs. (e.g. recordings sent to participants who missed meeting or lost connection)
11:39:06 From Ivan Sierralta to Everyone : Did we manage face to face? We check up face to face and we did discussions but the work was done async…
11:39:37 From INTONOVUS Canada to Everyone : clubhouse
11:39:42 From Cindy Nguyen to Everyone : Gather Town
11:39:46 From z business to Everyone : Mural
11:39:52 From Stephanie to Everyone : Redbooth
11:40:01 From Alicia Richins to Everyone : Also some great new conferencing softwares that better mimic the in-person conference experience like kumospace and gather.town
11:40:03 From Monique (she/her) to Everyone : Remo
11:40:23 From Heidi Braun - IDRC to Everyone : padlet (collab software)
11:40:24 From INTONOVUS Canada to Everyone : Discord, Asana, Mighty Networks
11:40:30 From Alicia Richins to Everyone : Lucidchart
11:40:33 From Ivan Sierralta to Everyone : Whiteboard
11:41:09 From Jessie Heckenmueller to Everyone : Love Mural, but an intro board to demonstrate the technology is almost always needed and I've had colleagues really struggle even with good intros.
11:41:45 From Ivan Sierralta to Jocelyne Daw(Direct Message) : Could PBA have a list of recommended / suggested platforms and a list of no cost (for non profits)?
11:41:55 From Alicia Richins to Everyone : Hopin
11:41:55 From Pauline Pingusson FCM to Everyone : I agree Jessie! Getting used to a tool during a meeting is challenging
11:42:08 From Tim Henderson to Everyone : Jessie, can you share a link or email to get hold of some MURAL Intros?
11:42:47 From Jessie Heckenmueller to Everyone : Hm, let me see if I can find a template quickly
11:42:50 From Charlotte to Everyone : Community at work (I.e., Sam Kaner's shop) did a great document on available platforms. Alas, I don't have a link, but check out the folks at Community at Work in San Francisco.
11:42:52 From z business to Everyone : ayoa app is good as well if compares to Mural
11:43:30 From INTONOVUS Canada to Everyone : I also have partners and individuals using hangouts, Wechat, and WhatsAp, even facebook
11:44:12 From Ivan Sierralta to Jocelyne Daw(Direct Message) : I can  help with creating a resource if there is interest.
11:45:08 From David Lee to Everyone : Yes - it’s good to see people’s faces when they’re speaking!
11:46:19 From Kate Potter to Everyone : Or just to have people turn off their email!
11:46:27 From Charlotte to Everyone : Even PBA is guilty of that, with our active chat. I'd say turn off chat during specific times. And, we have to *slow* down!
11:46:36 From INTONOVUS Canada to Everyone : or move everything to their junk email account!
11:47:31 From Tim Henderson to Everyone : I try to position my camera over the speaker to "have" that eye contact. It is so important.
11:48:15 From Pauline Pingusson FCM to Everyone : Yes TIm! This new feature on Zoom is great
11:48:49 From Alicia Richins to Everyone : lunch meetings where we can actually eat lunch!
11:49:37 From INTONOVUS Canada to Everyone : Polls are not the most engaging, so we use them because we haven't figured out how to help engagement when zoom only allows one person to speak at a time.
11:50:01 From Niki Fehr to Everyone : We've used breakout rooms for that one on one support where needed with a co-leader.
11:50:36 From INTONOVUS Canada to Everyone : Transferring between meetings e.g. zoom, Teams, and Google Meet often wrecks people's camera or sound
11:50:36 From Jessie Heckenmueller to Everyone : @Tim - It's not a board, but here is a blog from Mural on introducing new collaborators: https://www.mural.co/blog/5-easy-steps-to-introduce-new-collaborators-to-mural I've seen teams use an intro PDF and board explaining and letting them practice with the platform
11:51:09 From Tim Henderson to Everyone : @Jessie thank you.
11:51:51 From Monique (she/her) to Everyone : Creativity
11:52:03 From Monique (she/her) to Everyone : co-creation
11:52:04 From fawna.bews@albertahealthservices.ca to Everyone : Distractions from home
11:52:11 From Kate Potter to Everyone : finding a time accross multiple time zones to find a time that suits everyone.
11:52:17 From Pankaj Jiwrajka to Everyone : challenge of maintaining motivation of the team members
11:52:20 From Anita Quach to Everyone : brainstorming, robust conversations and idea generation
11:52:20 From David Lee to Everyone : drawing pictures together (on a whiteboard)… can be replicated a little bit online, but just not as easy as on a flipchart or whiteboard
11:52:36 From Kim to Everyone : I second bonding while sharing food
11:52:53 From Monique (she/her) to Everyone : Completely agree Kim
11:52:55 From Ivan Sierralta to Everyone : Echo @ Kim
11:53:02 From Jenny Park to Everyone : Just getting people online can be challenging if they haven't used the online platform
11:53:08 From Katrina Secord to Everyone : Uniqueness. Can be brought back to that engagement aspect, but everyone is doing the same thing online these days so how do we separate ourselves from the crowd? In my work, we are a. Very unique service but online not so much
11:53:18 From Jessie Heckenmueller to Everyone : Goes with "reading the room" but people not being able to read when someone is about done talking or about to start talking. Can keep some people quiet
11:53:47 From Tim Henderson to Everyone : The opportunity to connect when we couldn't otherwise is great, but I find that in SOME situations, blank screens are very challenging - can't tell if the other folks are engaged, listening, or even there.
11:53:54 From INTONOVUS Canada to Everyone : conference sites like remo seem awesome, but are often confusing, distracting, just like you are at a real conference
11:55:36 From ssmithmclean to Everyone : My apologies, I need to leave early as I have another meeting, I did not want to miss the opportunity to at least be a part of this learning.
11:55:45 From ssmithmclean to Everyone : Thank You so much!
11:55:46 From Jocelyne Daw to Everyone : THanks for joining us.
11:56:06 From Bethany White to Everyone : me as well, thank you! I hope the recordings/slides will be available later :)
11:56:12 From Jessie Heckenmueller to Everyone : That reminds me - I think online there is a need for more facilitators that play different roles (e.g., speaker, technical assistance, monitoring chat, etc.), especially for larger group meetings
11:56:29 From Jocelyne Daw to Everyone : We have a course on Remote Partnering - remotepartnering.org
11:56:31 From David Lee to Jocelyne Daw(Direct Message) : hi Jocelyne - I’m about to get onto my next Zoom call :-)   Thanks to you, Mary and Cath for the session!
11:56:41 From Jocelyne Daw to David Lee(Direct Message) : Thanks David
11:57:00 From Ivan Sierralta to Everyone : The chat box is of for participant to participant now...
11:57:38 From INTONOVUS Canada to Everyone : FYI a lot of presenters do not share the chat, but now, if it's set, just click the 3 dots beside the file icon where you type your chat for more, and you can save a copy of the chat yourself. Very good for meetings with links, and if the chat is so active you can't keep up
11:57:38 From Ivan Sierralta to Everyone : * is off
11:58:27 From Kim to Everyone : online is good for people with small voices since everyone can hear you- can be a problem in large meeting rooms
11:58:47 From Tim Henderson to Everyone : There are different types of engagement, but there are also good and bad manners...
11:58:58 From Kate Potter to Everyone : and with the 'raise hands' function shows who has something to say instead of them trying to edge into the conversation
11:59:21 From Jessie Heckenmueller to Everyone : I think the accessibility that online provides can be huge! Especially between large distances or people/partners who don't have resources or time to travel. This can increase diversity and equity
11:59:25 From Jocelyne Daw to Everyone : We are recording and saving the chat which will be sent out to everyone.
11:59:49 From Shannon McInnes - PolicyWise to Everyone : I'd like to see closed captioning features become common practice. There are many who have hearing challenges.
12:00:18 From Stephanie to Everyone : One org I work with has an online etiquette guide that is sent with the agenda for each meeting.
12:00:37 From Ivan Sierralta to Everyone : Close captioning is not perfect but it comes at no added cost / overhead!
12:00:40 From Mary PIckering to Everyone : Stephanie that sounds interesting - is it available for sharing?
12:00:41 From Jessie Heckenmueller to Everyone : I'd love to see that if they are willing to share, Stephanie.
12:00:52 From Jenny Park to Everyone : @stephanie where can I find that
12:01:02 From Stephanie to Everyone : I can find out and send later if allowed - not sure if it is shareable.
12:01:25 From INTONOVUS Canada to Everyone : Yeah, the etiquette guide. I realize I use it for presenters, but not attendees
12:03:11 From Katrina Secord to Everyone : I think the online world is way more inclusive especially for people with physical disabilities. Those persons can now facilitate meetings, attend, present, meet, anything they couldn’t physically do before; and further, it’s more socially acceptable to do anything online where as before physical disabilities weren’t accommodated necessarily
12:03:35 From Jessie Heckenmueller to Everyone : APQC has done some interesting research on The Norms & Guidelines People Want for Virtual Collaboration - https://www.apqc.org/resource-library/resource-listing/norms-guidelines-people-want-virtual-collaboration
12:04:34 From Heidi Braun - IDRC to Everyone : we can include and support participation by different language groups when engage interpreters for meetings/workshops
12:05:28 From Jody Wolfe to Everyone : Building on the use of other tools - you can use the group video meetings for more particular purposes and then collaboration tools to workshop on people's own time when they might have more time to think or be in their best frame of mind
12:06:00 From fawna.bews@albertahealthservices.ca to Everyone : I'm noticing a need for Clarifying meetings
12:06:19 From Kate Potter to Everyone : and sending the meeting purpose at the beginning of the meeting.
12:06:34 From Tim Henderson to Everyone : What do you mean by "Clarifying meetings"?
12:07:02 From Katrina Secord to Everyone : Fawna, I have found that too!
12:08:26 From Tim Henderson to Everyone : Absolutely! But, it takes a commitment to taking the time necessary.
12:08:44 From Tim Henderson to Everyone : Yes, yes, YES!
12:10:26 From Jessie Heckenmueller to Everyone : I've found that things not working or "fumbles" can actually be great connection opportunities, too.
12:10:35 From Charlotte to Everyone : People we work with may be hesitant to try whoat we as brokers know works, but they're not "read."
12:10:43 From fawna.bews@albertahealthservices.ca to Everyone : Tim - I mean - meetings to check in on whether or not people are clear - on purpose, on what we are doing, etc.
12:12:08 From INTONOVUS Canada to Everyone : sending out the links that are easily accessed so people are not fumbling around before a meeting, and noting time zones within the meeting planner
12:12:12 From Alicia Richins to Everyone : Sharing the meeting/event agenda at the outset so people know what to expect, when they'll get breaks, etc
12:13:00 From Tim Henderson to Everyone : Allowing for that check-in all 'round before finalizing will go a long way to consensus-building. It takes time and is a learning experience for participants.
12:14:28 From Pauline Pingusson FCM to Everyone : I found that trying and testing a new tool or an activity with your team before using it with partners is great
12:14:46 From Sarah Walker to Everyone : Not every call has to be on zoom (or video platform).  Sometimes a regular call does the job and has a different energy to it....
12:15:00 From Katrina Bradley to Everyone : totally agree Sarah!
12:15:02 From z business to Everyone : I found laying out "Ground Rules" successful. Yet, in some case it may not work as people DO NOT READ but read In diagonal and looking for info they want to hear.
12:15:05 From Shannon McInnes - PolicyWise to Everyone : I'd be interested to know if others have found that people have less tolerance for longer meetings now than when we could hold them in person. E.g. Pre-covid, we could hold a half day facilitation in person; during covid, we've need to move to a two hour virtual meeting due to zoom fatigue.
12:15:47 From Jody Wolfe to Everyone : @Shannon - I have found that as well
12:16:03 From Jocelyne Daw to Catherine Russ(Direct Message) : We’re about 15 minutes from the end.
12:16:27 From Jessie Heckenmueller to Everyone : @Shannon - Yes, I've seen the same. And breaks every ~2-3 hours or so if it is longer.
12:16:40 From Heidi Braun - IDRC to Everyone : maybe to address the fatigue another I is IMPORTANCE - does it really need to be another meeting? is there another way of exchanging, sharing information, hearing reactions etc. I hate when I am called to a meeting that isn't well organized or actually necessary.
12:16:53 From Kate Potter to Everyone : Way less tolerance but also allows for more streamlined conversations without the rambling tangents
12:17:19 From Tim Henderson to Everyone : I find that the lack of tolerance exists regardless of meeting format. I try to set the expectations ahead of time, and plan for longer sessions so that folks will make the time necessary... Unfortunately, not everybody will.
12:17:23 From Shannon McInnes - PolicyWise to Everyone : @ Jody Wolfe - it's been challenging as I factor in 5-10 min at the beginning for tech problems, late sign-ins, getting people adjusted to breakout rooms or tech platforms...two hours gets whittled down to 1.5 hours for a workshop
12:18:19 From Tim Henderson to Everyone : It all comes back to individual commitment, and the time they have/make for preparation.
12:19:36 From INTONOVUS Canada to Everyone : I thought the bottom one was drowning, or saving others
12:20:24 From Cheryl Newton-Skirrow ESCC to Everyone : Love that window view suggestion!
12:20:50 From Sheena K. Clifford to Jocelyne Daw(Direct Message) : Apologies Jocelyne I disappeared during the breakout rooms - I suddenly received a call and had to leave to pick up a sick kid. Exactly what we are talking about today! So glad you will be sharing the chat so I won't miss it. Amazing session today - thank you.
12:21:01 From Jocelyne Daw to Sheena K. Clifford(Direct Message) : Thanks for joining us!
12:21:15 From Jocelyne Daw to Sheena K. Clifford(Direct Message) : Glad you’re finding it useful.
12:21:25 From Jessie Heckenmueller to Everyone : When using Teams, I'll as people to put a GIF in the chat that describes how they are feeling. It usually helps people learn about each other and laugh
12:21:31 From Jessie Heckenmueller to Everyone : *ask people
12:22:44 From INTONOVUS Canada to Everyone : Here is a virtual diary we co-created during a 24-hour event we led last week. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1vm8aqQ8y0r-TO6ApUzuFvbe5udbaDVzZ9wZvD0RF5Ss/edit?usp=sharing
12:23:59 From fawna.bews@albertahealthservices.ca to Everyone : Been doing a lot of youth engagement - "would you rather" questions open a lot of great conversation. https://parade.com/964027/parade/would-you-rather-questions/
12:24:05 From Jessie Heckenmueller to Everyone : When it's a small enough group, I like asking them to share something that is bringing them joy or hope in their personal life and/or at work?
