What happened to proper etiquette when writing emails?

Question

I find it strange that as a student employee I have better email etiquette then the director of my department. Why don't people take it more seriously when writing emails?

Answer 1

Well, in the fast-paced business world, conciseness is key.

Try writing the main topic of your email in the subject line, then follow up with only three details in the email.  People will come to you for more info in person.

Answer 2

Speed. They want to get their message out as quickly as possible and be done with it.

I see the same thing at my work and am shocked, particularly when senior management does this.
