Revisiting virtual communications and etiquette norms

I recently sat through a very elementary presentation on executive presence. The presenter walked through appropriate dress and basic etiquette for a variety of professional settings. I was slightly annoyed that the presenter had chosen to spend so much time with adult professionals going over things I’d learned in my teenage‐era etiquette classes and in real‐time professional contexts. And then it occurred to me that, since coronavirus disease and the shift to mostly remote work, the blending of personal and professional spaces has likely meant a blurring of the lines of what is socially acceptable.
