Rapidly generate ideas by inviting participants to write down on a Doc as many ideas as they can have. Then use Magic Share to share this Doc on the screen, letting everyone comment and co-edit in real-time right within the video window.
This method facilitates highly productive and collaborative brainstorming sessions where all members have equal chances of expressing their thoughts, attaining inclusive group discussions.
- 3.@all is the new announcement
When it comes to group announcement, @all is the equivalent of standing up in the middle of the office and calling for everyone's attention. It's the quickest and easiest way to notify all members.
@all is as powerful as it sounds. However, it could be harmful if it's not used appropriately, especially in a large group setting. People who get notified may not be concerned about this particular issue. Worse, it could result in notification fatigue, which negatively affects productivity levels.
For more specific scenarios, you can simply @mention specific stakeholders who need to be notified. If it's more of an announcement, consider creating a group chat only with relevant members.
- 4.Urgent message? Buzz!
Commonly, messenger and email meet your needs. However, one size messaging doesn't fit all. If you're in an urgent situation, the Buzz feature helps you reach your teammates instantly. It can be delivered in 3 different ways: in-app notification, text message or phone call alerts, ensuring a prompt solution to all urgent matters.
