And replacing all slack threads with meetings is similarly non-productive. Making everything a slack thread and refusing to ever go to meetings is bad. But refusing to write anything down and forcing everyone to exclusively go to meetings is bad. So find the most effective through line. Most often that’s: 1. Slack message with enough context that someone can answer 2. Discuss on slack until it’s clear the topic is going to need 3+ people to decide on or is in need of higher bandwidth, such as a screen share or just is urgent enough that talking while moving would be faster 3. Hop on that quick call 4. When you realize you’re missing folks you need or whatever and it’s not urgent enough to drag them into the call, set up a full meeting

Nothing in the article contradicts the above flow, and the above flow is what works best in my experience
