ZOOM FATIGUE

For many of us who are still working we are waking up to a calendar filled with Zoom meetings. Not only are we packing in more Zoom meetings than we probably would in a normal office setting, but it has made us all fatigued. Why are Zoom meetings so exhausting? Shouldn‘t it be less of an effort than in person meeting?

We are already exhausted from the upheaval in our lives from the pandemic and while connecting over video chat seems like a way to relieve the isolating aspect of working from home there‘s actually a disconnect happening. In an interview with BBC, Gianpiero Petriglieri explained that being on a video call requires more focus than a face-to-face chat. "Video chats mean we need to work harder to process non-verbal cues like facial expressions, the tone and pitch of the voice, and body language; paying more attention to these consumes a lot of energy".

In a face to face meeting we are able to read the room and then adjust our own behaviors accordingly. So you can imagine our brains are operating on overload trying to figure out how to read 50+ "virtual rooms" at the same time while figuring out whether to stare into the persons eyes or their baby succulent in the top left corner of the screen.

An initially scheduled 30-minute Zoom meeting can turn into an hour + meeting because of things such as poor wi-fi, frozen screens and software crashes. In the beginning of quarantine, Zoom and many other conferencing platforms were actually crashing several times a day.

Our homes have now become our work spaces and our work spaces our homes. Zoom has blurred that balance even more because we are using the platform for work and social purposes. While virtually connecting with friends and family is a great thing, it can be overwhelming after a full work day of doing so. Ask yourself the question, "could this Zoom meeting have been an e-mail?" If the answer is yes try to suggest communicating over e-mail or even just a regular phone call so you don‘t have to worry about what you or background setting look like.
