Raise your hand if you have a boss who is too blunt over email. Actually…if you’re driving…please, keep your hand on the wheel. Busy people are often too short in their emails, and the tone can feel cold or distant. Instead, imagine you spoke to the person face to face. Would you only give a one-word response, or would you make the conversation feel more natural? Take a few extra seconds and turn your message into a human exchange. The person on the receiving end will appreciate it.
