Description

Email is a wonderful tool. It allows you to be efficient with your communication. However, once an email leaves your inbox, there's no going back. If you've sent an email with sensitive information to the wrong person, or hit 'send' while you were still drafting the email, you know that a simple mistake can have awkward consequences.

We sit down with our CEO for 15 minutes each week to get practical business advice so we can advance in our careers. In this episode, we learn what to do if you regret sending an email...

Key Takeaways

• If you feel like you may have offended someone, follow up with them in person
• If you're the one offended, take the opportunity to share why it offended you
• Depending on the answer, maybe consider sharing with the company as a whole
• Always use send delay with your emails. You'll be grateful for those few extra editing minutes at some point down the road.
• If it's a super important email, always get another set of eyes on it before hitting "send."
