THE LONG VIEW
For Supervisors & Salaried Employees

Dear Fellow Supervisors and Salaried Employees,
|
All advancements left unchecked can become problematic. In this Long View, we take a hard look at the reality we now face after over 20 years of email capability. Today over 333 billion emails are sent daily, and can account for 28% of our daily work time. Email is the 24/7 go-to for most corporate communications nowadays, making it hard to disconnect and be fully present for those we love, manage our inboxes and challenge our ability to use our time efficiently. It also increasingly detaches us from face-to-face conversations. Email is effective, and equally ineffective.
|
We do not have all the answers; communication is too complex to think there is a magic cure-all. We do, however, have suggestions that address how to think about email, ensure your email is read, and tips and tricks to improve how you use this tool. We also interviewed Revenue Manager Joanna Tenbrook, who shares her strategies for taming the email beast.
|
A special thanks to Caroline Heivly, Max Olson, and Elli McKinley for adding their insight.

Director of Engagement & Development, Human Resources

PS – I recognize the irony of sending an email with advice on managing your email.

TAMING THE BEAST: EMAIL

If opening your Outlook box makes you cringe or you're not getting the email responses you'd like, this Long View edition covers some best practices for email communications. There are ideas for how to create norms around email with your team to lessen email flow, how to send emails that get read, Outlook advice from the BullWheel, and helpful tips from Revenue Manager Joanna Tenbrook in our latest blog.

Extroverts and Execs (and introverts if you're inspired), we need you! We will be at the Base Village Conference Center with a video camera from 1-3pm and 5-6pm on Aug 4. We invite (plead, beg, badger) you to stop by before or after MIM and record a short video welcome message that we'll use for new employees this fall. You'll answer three short questions and be off. Please consider being a part of this project and helping us to make our new employees feel welcome!
