Stop Blaming Tech for Bad Communication — It’s You

Many leaders think that the newest tools and fancy tech will magically fix productivity and make teamwork effortless. The hard truth is that: it won’t.
Without a clear communication agreement and shared rules everyone actually follows, even the most expensive apps are just digital chaos in disguise.

🎙️ Topics:

• Technology is only half the success – why tools alone aren’t enough
• The communication agreement as the foundation of teamwork
• Technology vs. organizational culture – what really drives effectiveness
• Clear communication rules as a path to higher productivity
• How to create a good communication agreement – the Nozbe example
• Synchronous vs. asynchronous communication – finding the right balance
