Communication Plan
From: Jackie Grossman, Director of HR Operations
To: Tamicka Summerville
Thanks for all of your great work so far. Before we move much further, I’d like to tie up another potential loose end with the new motivational team. As you know, we’ve never tried to run a team like this, virtually all virtual. There’s a lot of excitement for the new approach, but also some concern about having team members spread out across our locations.To alleviate some of those concerns, I’d like you to start putting together a communication plan to explain how you’ll be working—covering both how the team will work internally, and how it’ll interact with other members of the organization.I've pulled a list of software all employees have access to, but if there are tools we don't use that you think this team should be using, feel free to call those out.Thanks,
Jackie
