We began talking to regional managers who spent each Monday on the phone calling their people one at a time to deliver information, repeat policy and deliver action items. Conferencing changed all of that. Instead of just being able to deliver a one-way informational message, dispersed organizations were able to get their people on a call once a week. Now, there could be a conversation.

To me, the best conference calls are ones where most of the people have an opportunity to contribute. They’re the ones that don’t last forever and stay focused. They’re the ones that use the medium to collaborate, train, strategies and engage.
