Though social media and messaging apps have taken over some of the roles from email as a form of communication, email is likely to keep an important role for business communication in the future. Surprisingly, though, a lot of companies and organizations lack formal guidelines for emailing. As most of you will soon be entering the workforce, I would like to share with you my own rules for emailing. If someone sends you an email, reply to the sender to acknowledge the email. It’s not necessary to reply to a mass email sent to numerous people. But it’s common politeness to respond to a personal message, preferably within 24 hours of receiving it. It’s also important to use proper English. Think of an email as a letter. Spelling, grammar and even the format should not be overlooked. And finally, never use capitals to emphasize a word or words in an email. It’s the same as shouting loudly. All right. That’s as deep as the explanation goes. Now I’m going to open up for questions.
