Effective Communication: Are You Becoming a Nuisance?
I see it over and over. A real keener on a particular topic collects all sorts of information and passes it on to everyone who may be remotely interested. Most people are not as interested as you think and would much rather ask for specific information when they need it rather than become content experts themselves.
Most junk mail senders mean well. They forward you information that you are not interested in, not realizing the intrusion and confusion they cause. Make E-mailers in your organization aware of the risk of overwhelming others, in order to solve this problem.
Instead, try posting information where all can access it if they want to, rather than storing it themselves.
