Drawbacks of Teleconferencing

Teleconferencing, while considered a savior of many businesses, is not without its share of negative characteristics. For instance, in the event of a major blackout or a technical failure, you will not be able to teleconference. This communication method relies heavily on technology and modernity to operate well. When these factors are suspended, meetings are likely to be suspended, too.

It's also difficult to negotiate and bargain if you're teleconferencing. This is because the other party can simply turn you off if he or she does not fancy what you're proposing, as opposed to face-to-face interaction, where the other party is compelled to stay and continue to listen to you. The impersonal feel of teleconferencing also makes persuasion difficult to maneuver.
