Today, professionals are constantly distracted by technology, connectivity, electronic information, and information overload … email, instant messaging, social media, phone calls, interruptions, etc. We switch tasks on the computer over 600 times a day. We are drowning in technology-based interruptions and information overload from co-workers, vendors, email and software notifications. These methods of communication are essential, but they are also killing us if we don’t have the process and technology in place to deal with them! Is technology serving you, or are you a servant to it? These vital interruptions & technology distractions cause very smart people to underperform.
