Communicating¶
What tool should I use to communicate?¶
Is the communication formal? - Yes - use e-mail for formal communications that will be started as notifications, approvals, agreements, - No - use Microsoft Teams (chat / posts) for informal communications
Wearing headphones¶
If someone has a set of headphones on, they are likely not available to talk face-to-face either because they are on a meeting or because they are focusing on work. Send an electronic message to allow them to reply when they are available instead of distracting their current work.
Informal Communication¶
Is the communication related to a Microsoft Team? - Yes - use the appropriate Channel in the Microsoft Team - No - use Chat
Formal Communication¶
Is the communication a "record" that needs to be retained? - Yes - print the email to PDF and save it in an appropriate Channel in a Microsoft Team or apply the appropriate licensing and set a retention policy.
