<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nRead the sample email exchange below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Negative communications can be tricky to navigate. How would you have delivered the message to the employee?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n\nTo Employee from Accounting:<\/strong>\n
\nIt is apparent that not submitting your timecard, as required, is still an issue with you. I am attaching the previously sent email, where I asked you to create your own reminder to send in your timecard, as you are currently not working on Fridays, when the original reminder was set for.<\/em>
\nI will ask you, once again, to create your own Outlook reminder to update your timecard, prior to payroll. Your delay in updating your timecard creates a delay in the payroll for all staff being processed in a timely manner.<\/em>\nThank you for your cooperation in this most important matter.<\/em>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\nResponse from the Employee to Accounting:<\/strong>
\nI apologize for any inconvenience. I have now set recurring reminder in Outlook for Thursdays.
\nThank-you for your message.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\nEmail from the Manager to the Employee:<\/strong>\nI am sorry for the tone that was communicated in the payroll email you received.\nThank you for setting a reminder in your calendar for your time card submission.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Writing Activity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Please open a new Word document and complete the following activity:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nWriting Negative Emails<\/h2>\n
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we only had to share good news? But alas, the world is more interesting than that.
\nPlease choose three (3) of the following scenarios and write an email for each (3 emails total):\n- \n
- The medical office\/clinic where you work can\u2019t take someone on as a client\/patient. They had been originally told that they could, but changes at work have made it so that it\u2019s no longer feasible. You\u2019ve been asked to craft an email to let them know.\u00a0<\/li>\n
- Busy schedules can make it difficult to maintain a schedule. An appointment for a client\/patient needs to be rescheduled for 3 and a half months later. You\u2019ve been asked to write an email to the client\/patient to let them know about the change in schedule.\u00a0<\/li>\n
- The not-for-profit organization that you work for relies on the generosity of volunteers. After recruiting some volunteers to work at a cultural event in exchange for free admission, some of the funding for the event did not come through. You are asked to email the volunteers to let them know that they will not be required and that the event is now much smaller.\u00a0<\/li>\n
- You work for a company that provides services and\/or produces. A product that has been ordered and paid for is no longer available. You\u2019ve been asked to send an email to the customer and are authorized to offer credit, another similar product, or full refund, in that order.\u00a0<\/li>\n
- Customers rely on phone, internet, power, water, etc… A brief service interruption yielded an email from an unhappy customer asking for compensation for the disruption but as per the service agreement, they are not entitled to compensation. You\u2019ve been asked to please, \u201cTake care of writing the email\u201d, as all the salespeople are currently overwhelmed.<\/li>\n
- You\u2019re at a fairly new job (you\u2019ve been there for 4 months) and volunteered with a committee at work to host an open house. In the first meeting, you offered to setup Microsoft Planner to track tasks for the open house, but realized that you don\u2019t have the computer access required to fulfill your promise. Let the team know that you are unable to use Microsoft Planner. Do you offer to track it on paper? In an Excel spreadsheet? Or ask to not do it at all?<\/li>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n
