Give me a digest email to my inbox once per week. Brief headlines and a few bullet points with a link to further information for each headline. Sack the rest of the emails off unless they’re critically urgent.
We could even have a Wing, Region and Corps digest and that would be entirely manageable. Although Region & Corps digests would probably not need to be any more frequent than monthly.
But at least this way the updates wouldn’t be so passive.
This is actually the approach my employer takes. All one-off comms must be through other means (SharePoint, employee portal, employee news app, etc.) and corporate comms, as the only people able to send emails to all, send a digest email with links.
Sooo, no weekly brief this week? They’ve managed every week since June, but looks like this weeks is missing, given they have so far been launched on a Friday?
Or it it a case that 1 single person in the Influence steam is doing it, life has got the better of them this week and they’ve forgotten, or they are on leave; and noone else has stepped up?
It was on me the last couple weeks and I couldn’t get this one out on Friday for various reasons, and after I couldn’t grab the laptop long enough to sit down and write up the brief, we decided to push the content into the upcoming one.
Normal service this week as some of the team return from leave and bring balance again (and cover my ineptitude).
Apologies, but good to see it brings value.
And a plug that we have vaccancies in the team, primary and supernumary, across content or project support focused roles. DM for more info or see the next weekly brief.
