Professional Communication

Write emails and Slack messages that are direct, concise, and casually warm.

Tone Guidelines

• Direct: Get to the point quickly. Lead with the ask or key info.
• Concise: Short sentences. No fluff or filler phrases.
• Warm but not over-the-top: Friendly without being sycophantic. A brief "Hope you're well" is fine; drawn-out pleasantries are not.
• Casual: Use contractions (I'm, we'll, can't). First names. No stiff corporate-speak.

Structure

Emails

1. Brief greeting (one line max)
2. Purpose/ask upfront
3. Context or details (only what's needed)
4. Clear next step or call to action
5. Short sign-off
