Guess who wastes the most time in a work environment? Managers! Managers interrupt staff every 6-9 minutes. And, the poor admin are interrupted every 2-3 minutes. No wonder we can not complete tasks! Here are some tips to Prevent Others From Wasting Your Time:
1. Stop the “gotta minutes?” It interrupts co-workers’ train of thought and productivity. Save up the interruptions to a minimum of only three times daily.
2. Remove the chairs from your office if you can. The chairs serve as an open invitation for people to take a break in your workspace.
3. When constant interrupters visit – stand up the entire time. It gives the impression that you are busy.
4. Encourage appointments. Usually by the time the appointment arrives, they have already solved the problem.
