Responding to workplace communications in a timely way is part of good business etiquette. Nothing frustrates coworkers and business associates more than unanswered emails, non responses to phone messages or inappropriate responses to work emails and texts.
This course goes over tips and techniques to respond courteously and professionally to work emails, texts and phone calls to show that you know how to communicate effectively.

In professional situations, displaying proper etiquette can give you a competitive edge over others who may not be using proper etiquette.
