About this certification
The Reply All button is among the most powerful instruments in modern office life, and among the least regulated. This program establishes a clear standard for when to use it, when to retire to a simple Reply, and how to remove people from a thread gracefully.
Candidates will also study the anatomy of the reply-all storm, a recurring workplace phenomenon in which a large mailing list becomes a feedback loop, and learn exactly what to do (and what not to do) when they find themselves in one.
What you'll learn
- A decision test for Reply versus Reply All
- How to move recipients to BCC without anyone feeling dismissed
- What causes reply-all storms, and the one response that makes them worse
- Subject-line and thread hygiene that keeps conversations findable
- Safety nets like Undo Send and delayed delivery
