Some co-workers still keep their cameras off, with no explanation.
As I’m sure you and your readers are aware, since the pandemic, many business meetings continue to be held on videoconferencing platforms. As someone who wears hearing aids, I’ve actually found this to be a huge boon! Being able to see everyone straight-on as they speak and discreetly adjust the volume as needed has made such meetings much less stressful for me. I am not straining to hear while taking notes or missing the soft-spoken person in the corner.
Sometimes, people who aren’t on camera aren’t even displayed as a name in a black box, and I forget they are there. Then all of a sudden they speak, usually on top of someone else, and everyone is startled at what feels like an intrusion. When I am the meeting leader, I will address this at the start, inviting people off camera to “join us” so we can all see each other. I’ve even gone so far as to cite my hearing challenges in my request. Even so, it’s not uncommon for one or more folks to just stay off, with no explanation or apology.
