The daily update is a key element of effective internal communication, fostering alignment and engagement by keeping everyone on the same page. This article explores best practices for creating and implementing impactful daily updates, including tips on how to keep them short, concise, and relevant.
Ideally, daily updates are delivered asynchronously to respect team members’ time. Whether they’re emails, app notifications, or brief meetings on platforms like tchop(tm), these quick and efficient communications are short and focus on immediate priorities or developments. They also help organisations reach remote and deskless employees. Additionally, they can be tailored to different employee groups based on their roles and responsibilities, improving relevance and engagement.
Daily updates are a key tool for organisations with fast-paced environments and frequent change, but they can be valuable for any organisation. Keeping them short and concise is critical to respect team members’ time, and consistent scheduling can build trust and establish routine. Personalisation can also improve relevancy by focusing on what’s most important to the individual.
To configure an Assistant action to deliver daily updates, set one of your intents as a triggering intent and then add a “subscribe to daily updates” conversation flow. When users invoke this intent, the action will prompt them to set a daily update reminder, and when they tap on the suggestion chip, they’ll be able to subscribe to the updates. For optimal user experience, you can also add a mid-conversation registration prompt and personalize the updates to better meet users’ needs.
