Whether you’re working at the office, or virtually, or in a hybrid capacity, interruptions and distractions surround you! In many ways, this is simply the nature of today’s working world, and for some roles, it’s an unavoidable part of the job.
But that doesn’t mean you have to simply allow these things (and people) to run your day. In fact, actively managing them is also part of the job! When interruptions and distractions try to pull you off track, you need to deal with them and get back on track quickly. Or, even better, you need to avoid them entirely. Learning how to do this is perhaps the most important thing you can do to maintain your productivity in any environment.
In this session, you will learn…
  • The difference between an interruption and a distraction, and why it matters
  • Effective prevention and management strategies that go beyond the obvious
  • How to adapt your strategies based on your role and the environment you’re in
  • The essential skills you need to develop to master this aspect of work.
