Face-to-face meetings are becoming rare due to the time and various expenses involved in organizing and holding them, and advancements in technology like videoconferencing that are thought to be more cost-effective. But face-to-face meetings provide the best opportunities to effectively develop transparency and trust in your organization. Trust is an integral part of all business relationships and building trust comes from having repeated personal interactions with one another. 

When tasks and decisions are complex, when there is a need for outcomes that require consensus, coordination, timing and the persuasion of others, face-to-face communications are the most effective channel.
