E-Mail not always the best way to communicate
Michael Fitzgibbon, in Thoughts from a Management Lawyer, points out in a recent post that email is not always the best way to get your message across, particularly when having to deal with difficult and possibly acrimonious subjects.

However, I agree that in some cases it is better to have a one-on-one conversation but then it may be desireable to follow up with an email to confirm the discussion.
