In this article I will discuss about World Beyond Email – Speak Ample and Write Less. In our professional and personal life lot of things directly or indirectly boils down to communication
I will explain how you can easily adopt habit of Speaking directly ( through variety of mediums ) rather than long email trails and achieve quick turnaround
What is mean by World Beyond Email – Speak Ample and Write Less
- Very simple, we need speak as much as possible and use email for confirmation or agreement or summary
- This applies to internal or external stakeholders
Why Speak Ample
- Face to Face communication is highest bandwidth communication
- We can easily sense body language and gestures to get things done
- How many times has an email been misunderstood or ignored ? Face to face communication minimize the risk of miscommunication compared to email
Communication Sequence
- Face to Face
- If we are doing work in different regions we can have phone call or video call
- Once we are done with above ways then we can use email for summary only
Hope this helps
