Hanna Thomas Uose on why video calls don't give us Zoom Fatigue, but rather Zoom Trauma

The Human Risk Podcast - A podcast by Human Risk

You’ve heard of Zoom Fatigue. But what about Zoom Trauma? It sounds extreme, but an article by my guest on this episode Hanna Thomas Uose suggests that this is precisely what we’re experiencing. I was so intrigued by what she had to say, that I invited Hanna onto the show to talk about it. In our discussion, we explore why she thinks that and what we can begin to improve things. We discuss why Zoom (and other video channels) are so traumatic and what thoughts Hanna has about how we can begin to solve the problem. She’s got some great ideas about how social media and the creative arts can help.I’m a keen advocate for what Hanna is proposing and I’ll be following it as part of my Human Risk and Compliance Media Toolkit projects.The original article that prompted this discussion is: https://blog.usejournal.com/the-trauma-of-zoom-bb3609aa41b2To find out more about Hanna’s work visit her website here: https://www.wealign.net/about-usShe’s also on Twitter: https://twitter.com/hannathomas?lang=enWe also referred to:A video featuring Professor Robert Kelly https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mh4f9AYRCZYThe Meeting Owl https://www.owllabs.com/meeting-owlSarah Cooper https://twitter.com/sarahcprFor more on the Compliance Media Toolkit, a guide to having better virtual experiences which is targeted at Compliance staff, but available for free to anyone and relevant regardless of your role, sign up here: https://bit.ly/31zALKyFor more Human Risk related content, follow me on Twitter https://twitter.com/humanriskblog and subscribe to the Human Risk newsletter here: https://bit.ly/2DpUjcF
