Imagine this: you're leading a session, engaging with people from various locations, all connecting and sharing in a meaningful way, and it's all happening seamlessly through the screen. For many charities, the thought of conducting remote group sessions might evoke a sense of apprehension. Questions about complexity, engagement, and effectiveness naturally arise. But, what if mastering these sessions is far simpler than you've ever imagined?
The biggest hurdle is often just beginning. The uncertainty of how to start and what to expect can be paralysing. However, the first step is about embracing the learning curve. Start with a simple session, perhaps a casual meet-up or a discussion on a familiar topic. The goal is to familiarise yourself and your audience with the remote format, rather than deliver a flawless session.
There’s no better teacher than experience. Each session will provide insights into what works and what can be improved. Encourage feedback from participants and be open to experimenting with different formats and topics. The initial sessions are as much a learning experience for you as they are for your audience.
Initial hiccups are part of the journey. Technical glitches, awkward pauses, or low turnout – these are all opportunities to learn and improve. The emphasis should be on the effort and the willingness to adapt, rather than on delivering a flawless experience right away.
Starting remote group sessions is more about taking action and less about getting everything perfect from the outset. With each session, you’ll gain more confidence and expertise. The transition to remote is an opportunity for growth, innovation, and expanded reach.
