What is BCC?

E-mail copy refers to sending an email to a person other than the recipient at the same time. A copy of the email written by the user is sent to others, and the other party can see the user's E-mail.

Email copy

English name: Blind Carbon Copy, also known as "blind carbon copy", the only difference from carbon copy is that blind carbon copy allows each recipient to only see the mail, but not the addresses of other recipients.

Bcc is a very useful feature. If you send email to hundreds or thousands of recipients at one time, it is best to use Bcc. This way you can protect each recipient s address from being easily obtained by others. Second, it can save the recipient from receiving a large number of CCs.

Cc means that the recipient can reply (email) or not (email), and can see or not see the email, which means that your email can be sent to multiple people, so that multiple people can receive your email at the same time!

E.g:

You want to send an email to a teacher and a copy to a classmate

Email address of teacher can be entered in the recipient field

Fill in the classmate's email address in the CC field

Then both people can receive the email!

Q: What should the company people think about CC?

A: CC actually involves the relationship between the writer, the sender, and the CC. In simple terms, the purpose of CC is mainly divided into two types. One is to inform, to let your colleagues or supervisors understand the work situation. The other is to ask for help, hoping that the copy recipients will give some ideas for their work and make some comments.

Q: Can CC be noticed?

A: To a certain extent, but it should be noted that CC is much less binding than direct sending itself. The CC will give the other party the impression that "I" can answer or not answer. If the company wants to get the attention of the boss through the carbon copy, they should consider whether the carbon copy itself is sensitive enough and can be taken seriously. In fact, it would be better to send an email directly or go to the other person's desk for face-to-face communication.

Q: When it comes to teamwork, what is recommended for company personnel to do?

A : In terms of teamwork, the most commonly encountered question is whether to copy the emails exchanged between team members to the boss. This problem actually requires specific analysis. If the email exchanged by the team is relatively neutral, that is, everyone has reached an agreement and let the boss know a final result, there is no problem with the carbon copy in this case. But if the email of the two is in a dispute, then whether to copy the supervisor at this time needs to be considered.

Email copying actually considers the impact on different roles in the company. The key is to cultivate your sensitivity to interpersonal relationships in the workplace. For example, if the emails exchanged with colleagues in other departments are copied to your boss or the boss of the other party, you need to judge under different circumstances. No matter who you want to copy to, the ultimate goal is to get the job done.

Q: What inappropriate practices need to be avoided?

A: One problem that corporate people may overlook is "abuse of CC". In work, you don't have to copy every detail to your boss, which is likely to cause a burden on the other party. Judging before CC is actually a way to reflect your own execution and judgment.
