Learn proper meeting etiquette and professional conduct
What you'll be able to do
•Prepare for a meeting so you arrive ready to contribute rather than catching up
•Follow the unwritten norms of participation, from timeliness and turn-taking to camera and phone use
•Contribute clearly without dominating, and make room for quieter colleagues
•Handle side conversations, interruptions, and disagreement professionally in the room
Who it's for
Employees who attend meetings regularly and want to show up as a stronger participant, especially those new to a workplace or to more visible cross-functional meetings. Useful for people adjusting to on-camera video meeting norms.
What changes on the job
•A stronger, more credible presence in meetings you attend
•Fewer awkward or disruptive moments caused by unclear etiquette
•Colleagues who see you as prepared and easy to work with

Is this for people who run meetings or attend them?
Mainly attending. It is about conducting yourself well as a participant. If your focus is on leading meetings, the Meeting Purpose and Effective Meetings lessons go deeper on that.
Does it cover video meetings?
Yes. Camera use, muting, and virtual turn-taking are part of modern meeting etiquette, and the lesson addresses in-person and video settings.
