Follow on Google News | Dr. Susan Fletcher Announces 7 Smart Moves for Sending EmailThe second week in June (this week!) is National Email Week. Keep the following in mind when sending email and keep in mind 3 things you should never say by email.
By: Zan Jones 2. You can't take back what you put in writing. Unless you are tech savvy and know how to retract an email, which normally doesn't work, once you send one it's a done deal. Better yet, avoid the "Reply All" option. There are tons of "Reply All" horror stories. 3. Use airport caution. Anything you could get into trouble saying at the airport like "I feel like blowing this place up" - you shouldn't say via online forums. Any teasing that could be interpreted as potential terrorism should be off limits. 4. TMI "Too Much Information." 5. Condolences should be communicated by phone, handwritten note or in person. 6. Resist the urge to be cyberdaring. Most people are cyberdaring. "Haven't we all emailed a message that we would be too timid to say in person? With social media and emails we become reckless with our comments. I've even witnessed couples having arguments by email and I've worked with people who have been fired for information they sent by email,' says Dr. Fletcher. 7. "I could get into trouble by telling you this," “Delete this email immediately” # # # Susan Fletcher, Ph.D. is a practicing psychologist & speaker on Emotional Intelligence, productivity, performance & leadership development.
