Email

The best time to call me is email. ¹

Spend as much time crafting the subject line of an email as the message itself because the subject line is often the only thing people read. ²

Public speaking

When public speaking, pause frequently. Pause before you say something in a new way, pause after you have said something you believe is important, and pause as a relief to let listeners absorb details. ²

Miscellaneous

Illustrate Your Point. Adding code samples or drawing 2x2’s and system diagrams makes your idea much more effective. A picture IS worth a thousand words! Even this shitty example works, you can do better than me. ³
