FAB Newsletter: Updates + Career Advice

UPTOWN Professional: "The FAB Corner"   Social Slang vs. Professional Communication   The line between social media and professional communication has been blurred and many folks are falling victim. As a Professional Coach, I feel it is my duty to call out this MAJOR CONCERN! I realize it is the age of social media and texting, however many people are muddling online slang with professional communication and completely disregarding the rules of business etiquette. So exactly what is the issue? Well, for starters, individuals (students AND professionals are both guilty of this mistake) are using slang such as: "c u tmrw", "c'mon", "y not", "thx", "ur welcome", "u", "k", as well as smiley face symbols and nicknames for professionals they do not know! But, just because it is growing in popularity, this type of dialogue is inappropriate for professional communication. Before you send your next professional message, be sure to internalize these very important communication rules for success! Read the complete article here!      Article Written by: Professional Coach & Founder of The FAB Network, J.Styles   Your comments & feedback are welcomed!
