Challenges of online communication
We are spending a lot of time communicating online: private issues, business assignments, community engagement, training, learning, entertaining – the list is endless.
I might look as an easy way to deal with colleagues, bosses, employees, clients, friends… Unfortunately, it is a misleading perception. A lot of painful mistakes are made during online communication.
Actually, it takes some time for a beginner to develop the correct style of communication: polite, respectful, concise and engaging. There some basic netiquette principles which can be very useful – I am always reminding to my students (and to myself) about it:

There are tons of tips for communicating effectively online. The following 3 tips I consider as the most important:
- express your good intentions,
- deliver your message in a clear and concise way,
- be positive and approachable.
Dear friends, I wish you enjoyable communication experiences.
Have a good day,
Nadja
