To improve communication and collaboration, businesses have turned to using chat programs on their websites for interactive meetings. However, most of them are unmoderated, meaning that anyone can join the chat at any time without your permission and make inappropriate remarks or spam the chat with unnecessary messages, without being reprimanded.
So, you may want to consider using RumbleTalk’s Moderated Chat instead for your business meetings in order to encourage participation and get your attendees more involved in the conversation.
Here’s what you need to know about this fantastic chat type that can help you facilitate healthy, interactive meetings in no time at all!
What is a Moderated Chat?
A Moderated Chat is a group chat with a designated administrator. This person controls specific features that help facilitate discussion.
One of the most useful tools of an admin is the ability to approve or reject messages before they go live. He or she can also create polls, host question and answer sessions, and, export the chat transcript. Furthermore, the admin can also muting individuals in a chat if you want the spotlight to be on your announcement. This makes it easy for your business to host a safe and healthy conversation throughout your platform.
For instance, in an online event setting, the administrator can be the event organizer, where they can facilitate a Q&A session. During a meeting, the administrator can be the secretary, where she can create a poll to ask for feedback from the group. In a big online convention with thousands of users, the administrator can mute everyone, all at once, to have them focus on the announcement or program.
