From weekly check-ins to annual strategy planning, some meetings are necessary at work, and others aren’t as helpful. Most meetings get set because entrepreneurs are less experienced and might not know better. Others follow legacy processes from previous managers.
The result is disgruntled employees, out-of-touch managers, and dwindling productivity. In fact, 92% of employees agree that most meetings are costly and unproductive and that 70 percent of meetings keep them from doing productive work.
With mounting unproductivity and no sight of what’s to blame, most businesses react by scheduling even more meetings, which doesn’t help anyone achieve their goals. And employees agree, viewing traditional video-meeting equipment as a poor fit for ad hoc and one-on-one meetings, citing it as a key reason for meeting delays and inefficiency.
The Solution to Better Meetings is AI
Noticing a need to transform meeting culture, Yealink, has launched its 3rd-Gen MVC Series Microsoft Teams Rooms System. As future-thinkers, Yealink was the first to collaborate with Microsoft in integrating AI technology like voice control, identity recognition, and transcription into video conferencing.
Smart Features for Equitable Meetings
Driven by AI, Yealink’s latest meeting room solution elevates collaboration to provide equity no matter how hierarchal an organization is. With Copilot integration and voice commands to initiate and end meetings, participants can collaborate intuitively and creatively.
Voice and facial recognition also identify and display participants' names in meetings and real-time transcriptions. Whether through Multi-Stream People Feed (for regular meeting rooms) or multi-Camera Intelliframe (for larger spaces), the system cleverly tracks the latest four active speakers for seamless, natural discussions.
