Post | Post - A focussed conversation about a specific matter ie a document for collaborative development or review, Team discussion regarding a specific and finite issue Announcements – made to the whole team. These would be important and urgent messages ie “School Open Today – Roads all open”, “Water Supply Compromised”, etc |
Audience | All members of the Channel or Team |
Expected Response | Engagement with discussion when you get a chance. These can be treated more like the way we currently treat emails. Respond at your next availability or by the time requested by a supervisor. Posts can be made and commented on anytime, they cannot be scheduled.
Announcements – no response required |
Examples | “Hi All. So following our meeting this afternoon, this is where I am up to with the table we discussed. Can I ask you to have a look and make edits before our next meeting. Let me know if you have any questions.”
“Hi Rob and Joseph. This is the document I mentioned the other day. I like the idea in paragraph three (I have highlighted it) Let me know what you think.” |
