Preparatory Virtual Meeting with Jasmin

Audiovisual Requirements for In-person Events

• A helmet microphone (preferably) or a Lavaliere (lapel) style microphone with new batteries (only for groups of more than 50 people).

• Very important: Jasmin’s laptop has to be in front of the room (not at the rear with the technicians) so that Jasmin can access it when he needs to. Jasmin will use his own wireless mouse from the front of the room.

Room Setup Tips

• To improve the atmosphere in the room, it is preferable that the attendees be seated close to each other, while respecting the actual government rules of social distancing. Do not try to use all the space available in a room. Rather, it is best for your participants to be able to interact with others while remaining at a legal distance.
• To maximize the attention of participants, the first tables or chairs should be located within 2-3 meters of the speaker.
• Room temperature is crucial to have a successful event, yet it is too often overlooked. Participants usually become agitated or unfocused when the room is too warm or too cold. Ideally, cooler settings are preferable to warmer settings. We recommend to adjust the room temperature anywhere between 19.5⁰C and 21⁰C (67 to 70⁰F). Please make sure the room temperature is adequate at least one hour before the event.
• Jasmin’s keynotes and workshops are very interactive and engaging, please try to fill the seats in the front of the room for energy. The empty seats should be found at the back of the room (not in front). We aim for physical group cohesion. It also prevents latecomers from interrupting the presentation.
• In smaller, round-table settings, please advise participants to sit on one side of the table (in the shape of a half-moon) so that all participants have a good view of the stage and screen.
• To facilitate the memorization of the keynote and its quick applicability into concrete actions, we STRONGLY suggest that pads and pencils be available for participants. Most hotels provide these items on request. Note that this suggestion is especially important if an educational goal is sought during the keynote or workshop.
