Include an “executive summary” whenever you forward an email. People are busy and can’t always take the time to read through the entire message and then guess what you want them to do about it. Try to say more than “FYI”. Instead try – “Laura, I’m forwarding this to you from Brad. Please review his recommendations at the end of the third paragraph. I think we should seriously consider his ideas. Thanks, John”.
