Abstract:  
Every day, over 200 billion email messages are sent worldwide. This deluge of emails reduces our ability to focus on work because we are constantly filtering our Inbox conversations to keep our heads above water.

*In this 2-part 40 minute workshop*, Tony Castrogiovanni and John Papazian cover strategies that will allow you to effectively collaborate with colleagues without contributing to this flood of emails.

 

* In Part 1,* alternatives such as effective usage of Cloud Collaboration platforms (e.g. Slack), stand-up “huddle” meetings, and telephone calls are covered.

During *Part 2*, the audience is split into small groups to brainstorm and share additional ideas for alternatives to sending email.

Learning Objectives:  
Attendees leave with not only new insights and motivation, but access to a mastermind of individuals interested in supporting each other as they put the knowledge learned into practice.
