Webinar is a type of web conferencing service that is designed to enhance user interaction. It seeks to integrate interactive functions like polls, question and answer sessions in web conferences so as to enhance user experience and understanding. It thus has an edge over a simple conference on the web. These features have made it a popular among global businesses who indulge on offshore outsourcing business.
In outsourcing business projects, business houses employ people from different parts of the world. Communication is an important requisite for in accomplishing any kind of work and carrying out business processes smoothly. Communication becomes even more important when people from different parts of the world are involved. Meetings are an integral part of every business. But face to face meetings become a costly affair when offshore employees are involved since this demands a lot of travelling.
In order to communicate effectively with distant colleagues, especially when data and serious business decisions are involved, audio conferences are not very effective. Many companies are hence using the web to do the job. Webinar is a very interesting and popular business communication practice because it can have people interact simultaneously. Polls and other interactive features help in decision making. This is the closest we can get to face to face business meetings.
Webinars can also be used very effectively in training. Interaction is one of the key features of training since it enhances trainees’ understanding of the seminar under discussion. Webinars supports interaction best. Knowledgeable trainees from the other part of the world can train trainees effectively. This way the trained get to get trained under expertise.
