Most people communicate using instant messages in their personal life, but how is it different in the workplace? What are the best practices for effective communication using instant messages with co-workers and what are the risks? This course examines the powerful benefit of using instant messaging effectively at work and how to ensure that we aren’t annoying co-workers by ignoring the proper use of the technology.
