It starts with controlling the room. I worked in a startup accelerator near Union Square in NYC that had numerous little rooms that were sound isolated and had controlled light.
At the business school of my uni they have many "interview rooms" that fit two humans and a laptop comfortably.
With quality wi-fi and internet you had a good chance you could make it work with a computer or a phone with or without headphones, usb mic, etc.
Look at how they photograph people on a television newscast, "Good Morning America", "Sunday Night Football" to see best practices at work.
You can get an intimate effect in a large room by putting the "head office" into a small space such as a couch. Point the crowd at a big TV. Use a camera with a long lens (often zoom) from far away placed as close an angle to the TV as you can get away with so the crowd is almost looking at the camera.
For audio you'll probably pack more than one microphone and have to experiment (monitor the audio track) until you know you sound good.
When we did that I always felt included, engaged, and so forth whether I was.
