Tip

Top Tips

Respect people's pronouns. Some people choose to display these in their email signature. If in doubt, use gender neutral terms.

Respect people's names. If you are not sure, copy and paste their name to ensure you are spelling it correctly.

Write... then re-write! If you feel yourself writing a disrespectful/rude email, take a break and come back to it to edit or start again.
