One of the most embarrassing moments you can have during a meeting is forgetting the other person’s name, even more so after you’ve already been introduced. With conference calls, it’s especially challenging, because you cannot immediately put a name with a face.

Thankfully, the nature and function of conference calls is advancing, making it possible for business professionals to meet face-to-face virtually, without having to huddle in a conference room.
