Still a Small Face in a Box? Your 5-Day Fix Starts Monday ๐ฉ๐ฝโ๐ป
|
Hey FaciliFam, Do you feel invisible when facilitating online? Like a small face in a box? ๐ Not a philosophical question. I mean literally. If you: - Scramble for buttons mid-sentence while trying to hold eye contact.
- Run sessions that feel generic - no visual identity, just another Zoom call.
- Charge less than you are worth because your on-screen presence hides your value.
This is not a content problem. It is a production problem. The Difference In PracticeYou shouldn't rely on content and hope engagement follows. The experience shouldn't depend on slides and explanation. Let's move from simply presenting to running smooth, professional sessions in 5 focused days, and build a system that supports your flow and delivery. Here is what that transformation looks like in practice. Invisible โ In ControlYou learn to own the frame - a setup that commands attention. When people can see you clearly, they listen differently. Your presence becomes clear, confident, and hard to ignore. Tech Stress โ Effortless FlowConstant tech management pulls you out of the room at exactly the wrong moment. Your setup runs quietly in the background instead of competing for attention. You stay fully present - and your audience feels it. Generic โ RecognizableThere is a difference between being on screen and being remembered. You leave with a consistent presence that signals professionalism before you say a word. That recognition becomes a competitive advantage. Competing on Price โ Competing on PresenceWhen your value is hard to see, price becomes the default comparison - but a strong virtual presence shifts that conversation. Clients start choosing you for the experience you create. Masterclass Starts Monday - Final Call ๐Fixed dates not working?Facilitation vs Facilitainment ๐I recently joined Lucy Chambers on her "Edges of Facilitation" podcast to talk about virtual presence, smoother sessions, and what separates good online sessions from great ones.

Hey #FaciliFam, Palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy โฆ mom's spaghetti. ๐ฑ This is how every online session starts for me. The first few minutes are the toughest. They set the stage for everything after. That being Said, how do we start properly, let everyone arrive and still start with a bang? Start on time, or wait? ๐ Facilitators have strong opinions about starting their sessions on time. Of course I like to start on time too โฆ kind of. Some are finishing a task. Others just left...
Hey #FaciliFam, Miro got acquired this month. The buyer is Bending Spoons, and the price is $1.35 billion. Yes, that's the company's real name. I get mixed feelings whenever this happens to a tool I love. Remember when Miro bought Butter last year? RIP. ๐ I've been asked about alternatives all week, like I'm the whiteboard customer service. ๐คท๐ฝโ๏ธ So let's talk about one.

Hey #FaciliFam, Do you feel invisible when facilitating online? Invisible. Not invincible. Different problem, different newsletter. ๐ And not a philosophical question either. I mean literally. Small face in a little box. Name label. Screenshare. No presence. You're an expert in your field. Your content is solid. But on camera something goes missing. ๐ฏ It's not the content Right now the slides carry the session. You talk, you explain, you hope engagement follows. Meanwhile someone's inbox is...
