I really don't understand this. In a cubicle farm environment, you'd walk over their desk, interrupt whatever they are doing, and ask them to follow you to a separate meeting room to use the whiteboard? And how are other people supposed to contribute if you close the door in order not to disturb anyone in the radius of this meeting room?

I found that it's much less awkward to hit them up on collaborative tools. Meetings are also much easier to spin since you don't have to herd people into a single room and convince them as hard to use their limited time on this meeting since they can just do something else in the background if they're not in another one.

Well, in my workplace for example, there'd be spontaneous questions that would move to the whiteboard, and ideas could be fleshed out and developed there. Also, research meetings and journal clubs would be lively and full of debate. Since WFH started, none of this has been the case.

Again, i think it really depends on the people and the workplace. Some people are really content working from home, others are losing their minds.
