Etiquette

Netiquette Netiquette = Network etiquette the proper way we communicate and interact with each other using over the Internet

THANK GOODNESS FOR ! Quicker Means of Communication CheaperGO GREEN!Easier

Maybe we were better off without it??? Today we avoid face to face communication Depending on technology that is NOT perfect Miscommunication More impersonal Almost Robotic

Well...what can we do to improve communication? Spell & Grammar Check Distinguish between formal and informal styles when writing Use a Signature including contact info. Be kind & Respond Promptly Be concise with your subject lines Address to specific person Be specific about WHAT you want & HOW you want to attain in through your writing Avoid Attachments & keep concise and within 1 screen shot Avoid slang & text writing

Avoiding Misunderstandings…. Remember that messages may be missed, ignored, lost, or forgotten Sometimes MORE can be accomplished in one telephone call than 100 messages DO NOT TYPE IN ALL CAPITALS Give credit to those deserving of it & ask for permission to quote them Remember that you DO NOT have complete confidentiality and privacy (lawsuits/ work policy)

Some words to the wise… (cont.) Always RE-READ before hitting send Be aware of who is in the “TO” FIELD Cc /Bcc & Reply/Reply All – CAREFUL!!!!!! Do not use to discuss confidential information & situations Do not divulge your user name or password to others

Well what is “Bcc” & “Cc”? Bcc: Is short for Blind Carbon Copy Carbon copied recipients are NOT visible to anyone but the sender Use this when sending to a long list of recipients or to recipients that should not know each other Should not be used as a spying device but only to protect the privacy of addresses (ethical violation?) Cc: Is short for Carbon Copy More than 1 addressees can be in this field (separate them with commas) Carbon copied recipients ARE visible to all other recipients Usually used when others are referenced in the or for those you want included in the conversation

Example of CC vs. BCC From : Jonathan Grove To : Ashley Miller Cc : Janet Costa, Nina Myers Bcc : Julie Ann Skala Dear Ashley, Thank you for your support with the meeting. I will inform you of the results as soon as the files get posted. Tomorrow’s agenda will be available first thing Monday morning. Please review the details with Janet and Nina. Thank you, Jonathan Grove Assistant Manager Summer Fun Company Meli Road North Park, IL

Some words to the wise… Don’t forget to include your country as part of your address and your area code as part of your phone number (you never know how far your will go) Virus protection software is only a band-aid Avoid listing your address in publicly available directories and avoid replying to spam

Send the RIGHT message… Avoid Abbreviations & Emoticons Know your audience (language and style of writing depends on this) Spelling/Grammar/Punctuation gives a bad impression Separate FACTS from OPINIONS (focus only on facts) Your most important statements should appear in the first paragraph Don’t forget the GREETING and CLOSING ( Click on Graphic  )

may NOT always be the best method of communication When you reply to an you MUST include the original in your reply Never insult or criticize via . Work out differences face to face Misinterpreted TONE ( s mask tone and body language)

Best Impressions = Lasting Impressions Do NOT overuse: “URGENT” / “IMPORTANT” or “High Priority” option Keep your language gender neutral Do not forward chain letters Don’t forward or send s containing offensive, racist, or obscene remarks DO NOT SEND VIRUSES!!!!! Use bullets or numbers whenever possible

Be Responsive NOT Reactive Avoid writing an when you are upset or frustrated (it is best to sleep on it and respond the following day) s are permanent and you never know where they go and who will view them If you must send an response ASAP, have someone re-read it to make sure your response is appropriate and “safe” Avoid attaching unnecessary files Be careful with your TONE Remember you are judged by your writing skills NO TEXT WRITING!!!!!

Communication is Super Important ! ProfessionalismEfficiencyProtection from Liability

Passive vs. Active Use the ACTIVE voice of a verb wherever possible. EX) We will process your order today. (ACTIVE & sounds more personal) vs. EX) Your order will be processed today. (Passive)

Problems with Punctuation s without full stops or commas are difficult to read and can sometimes even change the meaning of the text Small paragraphs separated by blank lines are much more readable than long run-on pieces Careless writing skills demean your intelligence and integrity

Etiquette Unspoken Expectations… Try to reply to an within 24 hours Establish an organized filing systems Keep copies of important s for reference Use separate accounts for personal and business s

Etiquette Unspoken Expectations… Don’t forget to say PLEASE and THANK YOU Your should not be longer than 1 screen (if you need to scroll down..it is way too long Don’t broadcast messages unnecessarily Your SENT cannot be UNSENT DO NOT ASSUME PRIVACY. ( Click on Graphic  )
