The part about asking people to send an email instead of jumping on a call is so simple but most folks don't do it. That 99% stat about emails never arriving actually checks out, because if someone can't take 2 minutes to write out their question, they probably don't have their thoughts organized enough to make a call productive anyway. It's wild how we all collectively agree to burn time in meetings instead of just being straight with each other.
so true!!! I guess it all boils down to not having a strong relationship with the person in the mirror. When people don't have that, they subconsciously fill that with useless conversations in the form of meetings or even social media
