How It Helps Your Business English
Two sections on how a message is misread, with a sample exchange, then the tips in eleven groups. Each gives one habit with a short explanation, and several show a blunt message rewritten courteously or name the emoji that answers in place of a sentence. Subjects include patience, availability status, private criticism, GIFs, exclamation marks, capitals, abbreviations, threads and channels.
You can read the closing table first, since it pairs each habit with the one it replaces in two columns, then go to the group you want in full. The rewritten messages show you how a bare request becomes a courteous one with a greeting and a please. Use the sections on emoji, exclamation marks and capitals to judge how your own messages will sound to a colleague who cannot hear your voice.
