- Let's practice identifying receivers. Say you've decided to go on vacation. Who are all the receivers you need to consider? Pause here and write down your list. What's your list look like? When my husband and I decide to go on vacation, we need to talk to my boss, his boss, my students, my business partner, my mom, the house sitter, the pet sitter, our kids, the newspaper carrier, our travel agent, and more. Over a half dozen people just to leave town for a few days. Were you surprised at the length of your own list? Take another look at the receivers you've added to your communication action plan. Are you missing anyone? We are looking for everyone who might need to hear your message that's up the chain of command, down the chain, sideways, internal, external. Being a strategic communicator means planning out who should get certain messages so that we won't forget any important stakeholders.
