“In the absence of clear contextual teleconferencing rules, one way to look at this might be to not ask the question of how you should look. Rather, put yourself in place of the person or people that have to look at you during the teleconference, and ask these three questions: 1) Does it demonstrate personal respect for the position you hold? 2) Does it demonstrate respect for your peers? 3) Does it demonstrate respect for the institution of which you are a part?” — Cindy Ann Peterson
In the absence of clear contextual teleconferencing rules, one way to look at this might be to not ask the question of how you should look.
Rather, put yourself in place of the person or people that have to look at you during the teleconference, and ask these three questions:
1) Does it demonstrate personal respect for the position you hold?
2) Does it demonstrate respect for your peers?
3) Does it demonstrate respect for the institution of which you are a part?
