When this is the room
Cameras off; facilitator faces black tiles
Sea of Black Squares
Say this — right now
Keep cameras off if you need to - but drop a reaction or a quick chat ping every few minutes so I know you're tracking. I don't want to talk into a void.
Word for word is fine. The room won't know.
Work the move
- 01Replace visual cues with emoji reactions, polls, or chat pings every 5-7 minutes
- 02Normalize it: cameras off is fine, use words and reactions instead of faces
- 03Pause deliberately before asking for responses - no pressure to unmute instantly
- 04Model energy yourself even without visual feedback
