One of the most commonly used communication tool in the workplace is the email. As an efficient and low cost communication tool the email has to a large extent replaced internal memos and formal communication to external parties. Most organisations today cannot operate efficiently with the failure of the email communication system. Linked together with the world wide electronic network whether through cable or wireless means, like the cell phone, anyone can almost be reached anytime and anywhere even in the most remotest part of the world.
Such power and has inevitably changed the nature of the job. In the office, it has also added a new dimension in office politics which like a double edged sword can be used to your advantage or disadvantage. The office email on the positive side if used effectively can help on get promoted and also get demoted or to a more extreme case, dismissed. In the social front, it helps you network, make new friends and also lose them if used carelessly.
In any case, email has become a part of life. As can be seen if you were to asked to fill in your personal particulars, chances are you would be required to provide an email address you can be contacted.
