Hey, this is what the big boss asked for! He wanted full transparency so that no information got lost in translation, but he underestimated that when you direct a team member to notify everyone about everything, complying with said orders might actually make more people upset, thereby defeating the purpose of the entire exercise.
Wasn’t the whole idea to keep everyone in the loop? Shouldn’t that be a desirable goal? Sure, but when you’re spamming someone’s inbox, chances are more information is going to get lost in the shuffle, not less. Therefore, fewer people will be on the same page and will now have dozens, if not hundreds, of emails to sift through every day when they should be using that time to do their actual jobs instead.
We often joke about meetings that should be emails, but let’s not forget that sifting through unnecessary emails is also a waste of time. Let’s send our emails wisely, people!
