I would neither want to yell at other, nor enjoy being yelled at.
Still I might need a reminder. How about a visual cues that would/should
work for most participants in a f2f meeting?
Supply the chairs (~8 rooms?) with signs at least A4 size, or A3
maybe even using all caps and something like:
TELL US YOUR NAME,
PLEASE
(and affiliation)
The chair could raise the sign towards persons at the mic when they forget,
slowly moving it up in the air and over the head (and ultimately waving it...)
until the message has been received.
Maybe attaching such a sign to the MIC from the start could
additionally improve the situation.
