Virtual meetings are challenging for the organizer because It is difficult to read social cues virtually to gauge how the audience is reacting towards the topic discussed.  Also, the attendees can distract themselves with their emails and reports. It is also difficult to relate to the information shared virtually due to the lack of interaction or emotion.
