As we transitioned into 2021, remote working became the norm for many employees. As employers and their management teams worked hard to keep their employees connected and ensured that daily quotas were met, a new issue came to light: video conferencing fatigue.

They also have the ability to change conference rooms in between meetings, which provides a much-needed micro-break.
