Are We Addicted to Interruptions?
An issue in many offices is that the real work gets done outside of the office, either early in the morning, at nights or on the weekends because team members are in meeting after meeting during regular work hours. Those meetings typically only add more to the to-do list and also soak up time that could otherwise be spent being productive working on projects. When not in a meeting, the remainder of the day is filled with interruptions, emergencies that usually aren't true emergencies, and just simply trying to get settled in to actually get into a flow.
