50 Ways To Better Business: #32: Avoid Unnecessary Miscommunication

Avoiding Unnecessary Miscommunication is something to not be taken lightly.

In these highly mobile days something can and most usually gets lost in the translation between the face-to-face discussion to email to text response.

Therefore, your organization, if it doesn't already, should have standard method of transmitting and the verification of any message(s).

I am not talking about using ciphers and codes found on an old World War II Enigma machine but what I am talking is will it be email only? fax only? phone only? video conference only?

No matter what it is it should be agreed that it will be the ONLY way to communicate when not face to face is not possible.

This is in an effort to cut down and possible altogether avoid any unnecessary miscommunication (realistically there will always be some form of miscommunication).
