Podcast: Communication tips that improve end-user/IT relations

Too often, IT organizations fail to adequately communicate with their end users. And no, muttering obscenities and shacking your fists does not count as communication. This lack of interaction can lead to confusion, suspicion, and even conflict. You can often avoid customer dissatisfaction and resentment by effectively and regularly communicating effectively and regularly with your end users. During this 5-minute podcast, I discuss why there is no substitute for good communication and offer best practices for using three common communication methods: e-mail, voice mail, and face-to-face contacts.
