1. If you have a decision you want to document to avoid any misunderstandings, send an email explaining the decision.

2. If you have lots of details for people to sift through, send a file for them to review on their own time.
(Plus schedule a follow-up meeting, if needed).

3. If you have a topic that’s complicated, controversial or requires discussion, schedule a call or meeting.
