  • How do you decide what type of communication tool to use?
  • What do you consider when selecting an e-communication channel in a professional environment versus a social environment?
  • What are some of the things you anticipate from the receiver or decoder side of the model today? For example, a speedy response via instant messaging or the lack of spontaneity when using e-mail versus traditional face-to-face discussions may drive the type of sender tool you use.
