Great tips, even for someone who is retired. Even in casual video chats I can see how this would be beneficial.
When I went to meeting (online or in person) I would be quite at first. After getting the feel for the group I would slowly enter the conversations. Eventually, I became someone who knew what she was doing, and them became the go-to person.
