Communicating with a Manager Identify how you can help your manager. Volunteer for specific assignments. Clarify assignments. Ask for feedback. Adapt to your manager’s communication preferences. Develop a mentoring relationship. 12

Digital Communication Etiquette at Work Match your purpose with the social media device. Respond to ideas, not to people. Use social media to add value to a conversation. Respond appropriately and efficiently. Give praise where appropriate. 13

Social Media at Work Check company guidelines prohibiting social networking sites on company computers. Be careful what you “Tweet” to your followers. Messages could get back to supervisors. Consider using a professional networking site such as LinkedIn. Regularly “Google” your own name. Think twice before posting questionable photos or links. 14
