Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Using a laptop to access information relevant to the meeting can demonstrate preparedness and a commitment to contributing to the discussion. Choosing to place the laptop under the conference table or using it solely for personal tasks would not reflect well on interpersonal skills. A PowerPoint presentation may or may not be relevant to the discussion and could detract from the meeting's focus. Following the lead of other participants also does not necessarily reflect good interpersonal skills.
