The Quest #221: 🤷How engaging are your live sessions?

“How engaging are your sessions—really?”

Has this ever happened to you?

You deliver an online session and hit “end meeting”. And just like that, your group disappears into thin air 💭.

You find yourself alone at your desk left wondering, “Did that even land?

It’s easy not to know.

You don’t always get feedback.

Excellence in leading live sessions is hard to measure.

Partly because leading group sessions draws on so many interconnected skills.

And partly because there are very few analytics, benchmarks, and KPIs for group facilitation. Even fewer for leading virtual sessions.


What if you had a way of knowing?

As the old saying goes, “You don’t know what you don’t know.”

But what if it was easy to know how engaging your sessions were? And be really clear on the steps you could take to increase engagement even more?

Now you can! 🎉

I’ve been heads down for the last few weeks working on a new tool that will give you this insight. And I am finally ready to share it with you.

Drumroll please… 🥁


Meet the Online Engagement Scorecard. 🎉

It’s a free 20-question quiz that gives you an personalized assessment of your online engagement skills – all in about 3 minutes.

And I am excited to share it with you as a Quest reader before I officially launch it next week.

It’s based on the 4 core skills that live session leaders need to lead engaging sessions.

💡Design – How you plan and pace your session so it flows smoothly and keeps participants focused and motivated to contribute.

This includes having a clear agenda, mixing up activities, managing time well, and keeping the energy moving.

✨Interaction – How you keep participants actively involved from start to finish—so they feel part of the session, not just watching it.

This includes engaging people early, building connection, encouraging interaction, and leaving room for moments of spontaneity.

⭐️ Delivery – How you show up on screen and guide the energy in the room.

This includes your presence, authenticity, adaptability, and the energy you bring through voice, expression, and body language.

⚒️ Tech – How you use technology to support engagement, keep your sessions running smoothly.

This includes your confidence using key features, making thoughtful tool choices, having a solid setup, and staying open to learning new tech.

Take the quiz and you’ll also receive some additional bonus resources so you can boost engagement in your live sessions right away.


🔥 Here’s some of the feedback I’ve received so far:

The scorecard was straightforward an easy to complete. It gave me prompts I hadn’t considered before when thinking about my virtual facilitation skills.”

This is the first self assessment I’ve seen to better understand how you’re showing up as a virtual facilitator. It helped illuminate blind spots for me and gave me food for thought for my next workshop.”

Massive thanks to the Quest readers who helped me to beta test the scorecard. 🙌
