Step 1: Understand the concept of pull communication. Pull communication occurs when the recipient actively seeks out information, rather than having it directly delivered to them. This is typically done through platforms like intranets, websites, or databases where the recipient accesses the information on their own.
Step 2: Analyze the options provided in the problem. Each option represents a different type of communication method. Determine whether the communication is actively sought by the recipient (pull communication) or directly delivered to them (push communication).
Step 3: Evaluate the first option, 'Attending a scheduled team meeting.' This is an example of push communication because the information is delivered to attendees during the meeting.
Step 4: Evaluate the second option, 'Receiving a project update via email.' This is also push communication because the update is sent directly to the recipient's inbox.
Step 5: Evaluate the fourth option, 'Accessing a company's intranet to download a report.' This is an example of pull communication because the recipient actively seeks out and retrieves the report from the intranet.
