How to Work With Me - Personal Read Me Guide Example

This 'How to' guide is my favorite tool to set and communicating boundaries at work while acting as a great collaborator. I wrote this note when I was Group PM at LinkedIn in their Sunnyvale (CA) HQ. I shared it with new collaborators every time I changed scope or team and started working with new partners (which happened a lot!). Many colleagues told me they really appreciated my transparent approach to collaboration and the example I set in communicating my boundaries. Some even created their own version and thanked me for it. Feel free to copy it and create your own version. Make sure to adapt it to your personal style and needs, as well as your organisation’s work culture.
