If you multitask, so will your team

I just wear wireless headphones and tidy my room during big meetings. It's still easy to pay attention, and takes care of feeling restless during irrelevant parts.

In a sense, being in the conference room is asking people to be (ostensibly) 100% on during the whole meeting, which seems like a huge mental drain.

I love this idea but the four remote people are on a slack video call and projected to the big screen in the conference room. I can't imagine the response if I was seen walking around in the background cleaning stuff up.

Say your connection is rough and the quality is cutting so you’re just going to audio only?

Most of the people on my team have uninstalled their built in webcams for this exact reason.
