Hello all, my name is Anselm Gaynor and I work in Marketing Communications for a large US multi-national in the Life Sciences industry, at the EU headquarters here in the UK.
Primarily I'm an experienced end user of Live Meeting but I also manage to combine the roles of sponsor, trainer and account manager at the same time. I have been using Live Meeting heavily since April 2006 and to date have organised and facilitated many online training sessions, review meetings and presentations.
I am all too familiar with the difficulties faced in getting webconferencing formally adopted as a business tool within such a large and complex organisation, and while it's been a struggle to get this far, I'm pleased to say that my company has begun to see the potential benefits and cost savings, which I expect to lead to a planned, formal global rollout in the near future.
I'm here specifically to:
- Meet other LM users and discuss typical uses/tips etc
- Discuss software issues and limitations/workarounds
- Evaluate online training and collaborative meetings using LM
- Share best practice
- Discuss adoption and rollout with resellers
I look forward to talking to many of you, and becoming involved in technical and general discussion so that I can improve my understanding of LM.
