Idea #2: Prompt deep work.
Interruptions and distractions run rampant in today’s workplace and not only do they impact productivity, they actually affect the neural pathways in our brains, making focus more difficult. Engage your employees in work that aligns with their strengths and passions whenever possible, then allow space (ie, a quiet conference room or a 3-hour time block at the local library) for them to get into flow.
