This will mean speaking with colleagues, liaising with stakeholders and collecting information via email. There can be a tendency to treat email as a more casual, less-public channel of communication, and this should not be the case. When writing emails, imagine that they would be read by your entire department. Keep the subject matter professional, always proof-read and spell check your emails, and review your send list to avoid a dreaded “reply-all” where only a “reply” was required.
