Discussion Question: Communication Challenges at Cemex, page 61, Chapter 02

This is a discussion questions based on a short passage in my Business Communication book.

Communication Challenges at Cemex, page 61, Chapter 02:

You recently joined Cemex and quickly became an enthusiastic user of the company’s Shift collaboration platform, particularly its wiki capability. In your brief time being involved with the wiki, you have observed some behavior that runs counter to the spirit of collaborative writing. Review the Individual Challenge below and decide how to respond.

Individual Challenge: An employee in Spain keeps editing your pages on the wiki, often making changes that seem to add no value as far as you can tell. She doesn’t seem to be editing other employees’ pages nearly so often, so you are beginning to wonder whether she has a personal grudge against you. You want to address this uncomfortable situation without dragging your boss into it.

Decide how to approach your contentious colleague. Should you call her on the phone, send her an email message, or perhaps insert a sarcastic comment about excessive editing on one of her WIKI pages?
Whichever mode of communication you’ve chosen, outline the message you think you should share with her.
How would considering your co-worker’s point of view, difference in location and time zone impact your choise of the communication method and what you plan to say? Explan.
Review the responses of your classmates. Are their responses and your own similar or differnt?
Reply to another class member and comment on how their responses and your own are similar or different.
Your participation and your responses will be graded using the attached Discussion Grading Rubric.
