"We know that e-mail tends to be misread about fifty percent of the time, the tone of the e-mail."
"Have you ever received an e-mail that said something like 'Send me this tomorrow.' And the person sending it was in a good mood, maybe a little busy, and just thought 'You know, she'll get it.' And you receive it and think 'Wait a minute, we are peers, why are you commanding me to do this?'"
"There are such minor, little things that one or two more taps on the keyboard soften the tone."
" People don't use complete sentences. They don't lead with their main idea. And the other thing that will happen is people will write narrative formats, they'll write paragraphs in an e-mail, when in fact something like three bullet points or three numbers -- one, two, three -- would be a more effective way of conveying that I need three things from you or that I'm sharing three things with you.
