Communication is central to almost everything we do, and yet many of us communicate on auto pilot. Leaders with demanding schedules often fall into the habit of using tools without fully understanding the best way to use them and, in doing so, perpetuate huge daily time drains on their team members. An example that instantly comes to mind is communicating via email. Everyone from the CEO to the frontline employee is dealing with the constant influx of messages.  As CEO, you count on your employees to receive and read your message then act accordingly. But as these stats show, email is an ineffective communication tool. 
‍

The communication problem doesn’t just lie with our tools. Effective communication requires structure: segmented messages to specific audiences, targeted channels and the ability to differentiate between urgent, must-see comms and ones that are not time sensitive.

New workstream collaboration platforms like Workplace from Meta offer CEOs and company leaders communication channels that enable them to get the right message to the right people (or teams) at the right time - even in real time. To be nimble to maintain their competitive advantage, company leaders have turned to these platforms to keep teams informed, engaged and aligned around strategic goals.
