The Oscar-winning designer (whose work features in “Wicked: For Good”) explores the subconscious language of clothing and how it shapes who we view as heroes — and who we view as villains.

This “sure” example shows us both the power of live interaction and life-balance are necessaries. To rectify the “sure” in the future, either party could schedule a Meeting to allow proper response along with Qs. Meetings don’t have to be long, as some are less than 5 mins. Meetings show respect to each other & top notch communication.

This is a great idea for team efficiency, not so great for privacy.

Interesting idea. and I admit, actually it already works, but without tegs. but how to be if a lot of colleagues use different communication style? I mean I will communicate with them in their style. but then who will communicate with me in my communication style?))

So, instead of just making sure we do not send one word responses with no punctuation and no emoji, we go to an entire methodology of letting others know how we prefer to communicate?

This person sounds like she is a useless contributor who would drastically slow down work with stupid meetings. Exactly what is wrong with corporate culture.

I mean “sure”. But this is dependent on the type of work involved and the leadership of that function. For a lot of white collar work; you do want to be inclusive and thoughtful but not at the mercy of the business needs itself.
If you have individualized and customized comms plans for every member of the organization, at some point you’ll be bogged down in a cascading fashion just communicating an idea or change that could’ve been an email or a “meeting about a meeting”. If you want to move fast, screen your hiring for flexible information absorption, and then operate focused on communicating with the widest audience possible for shared context and ensure you have a written or transcribed version for discoverability.

How about reproduce kids biologically less, have a system that everyone has their basic needs to reduce unhealthy competitions, consequently people be less busy and have time to process their job well and respond well?
Everyone knows processing things takes longer than hearing them.
