0125 - Email Shouldn't Be Doing All the Work!
This episode explains why email becomes overwhelming when businesses use it for jobs it was never meant to handle, including internal collaboration, task tracking, file sharing, decision-making, and project management. Email is still useful, especially for external communication, but when every conversation, approval, attachment, and action item lives in scattered inboxes, the work becomes harder to find, harder to trust, and easier to lose.
The episode encourages businesses to move internal work into the tools designed for it: Teams for conversations, Planner for tasks, SharePoint for files, and the calendar for meetings. When each kind of work has a clear home, the inbox gets calmer, context is preserved, and the organization stops relying on private mailboxes as the memory system for the whole business.
