Have you been trying to reach the CEO of a company, or any C-Level executive? Forget the telephone. Send them an email.
According to Officeteam, a staffing agency that routinely conducts surveys around workplace watercooler issues, the boss prefers to communicate via email. Two-thirds (65 per cent) of the 150 senior executives it contacted would rather communicate by e-mail.
The survey results are as follows:
**31 per cent said they preferred face-to-face meetings at work
**3 per cent preferred receiving an old-fashioned paper memo
**1 per cent of prefer voice-mail messages
The risk with emails is that they might never get read, or the boss may quickly delete them.
To ensure your email is read, make sure to have a capturing subject line, and no gimmicks. A genuine headline that will grab the boss’ attention.
