Use technology to stay connected with colleagues from "summary" of The New Corner Office by Laura Vanderkam
Staying connected with colleagues is crucial for success in any workplace, and technology can make this easier than ever. By using tools like email, instant messaging, video conferencing, and project management software, you can keep in touch with your team no matter where you are located. This is especially important in today's remote work environment, where face-to-face interactions may be limited. Email is a versatile tool for communicating with colleagues. You can use it to update them on your progress, ask for input on a project, or share important information. Instant messaging platforms like Slack or Microsoft Teams are great for quick questions or informal chats. Video conferencing tools like Zoom or Skype allow you to have virtual meetings with your team, complete with face-to-face interactions. Project management software such as Asana or Trello can help you stay organized and on track with your team's tasks and deadlines. By using these tools to communicate and collaborate with your colleagues, you can ensure that everyone is on the same page and working towards the same goals. In addition to formal communication tools, social media can also be a useful way to stay connected with colleagues. Platforms like LinkedIn or Twitter allow you to keep up with what your coworkers are working on, share interesting articles or resources, and even build relationships with new colleagues outside of your immediate team.- You can ensure that you are always in the loop and able to collaborate effectively with your team. This can lead to increased productivity, better teamwork, and ultimately, more success in your work.
