Hybrid work environments are driving more text-only communication. A recent study from Preply found that some older workers still prefer using traditional methods like a phone call while younger workers prefer text-based messages.

Some young workers now struggle with effective communication because they are not getting visual cues in conversations, where options like in-person meetings or even video calls can improve that connection.
