Distracted at work? Tips from an attention expert to reclaim your time: ‘Manage your manager’ (via CNBCMakeIt)
," revolves around conquering distractions.
When employees voice concerns about feeling distracted, there's often a stigma attached: Is it just a personal problem? Are they unable to focus for trivial reasons? "I believe that distraction in the workplace is a symptom of cultural dysfunction, that it's the canary in the coal mine of a bad company culture," Eyal says.
Often, managers don't know how employees are really spending their time — jumping to incorrect conclusions when a task takes longer than they think it should. This provides managers with the kind of transparency they always want, without having to micromanage employees to get it. It also blocks off the time you don't want to be interrupted.
If you're in the office, popping in headphones won't do the trick, Eyal says, since it might look like you're just watching a video or listening to music. Instead, move to a quieter area of the office, or put a "Do Not Disturb" placard on your desk.Finally, for both employees and managers, a broader mindset shift is necessary to become truly distraction-free.
