1. Discuss Priorities: Identify and write down your top priorities with your managers to align goals. This helps in making informed decisions about meeting requests. For example, if a manager prioritizes completing a project, they can decline a non-essential meeting to focus on important tasks.
2. Protect Your Time: Set boundaries for focused work by blocking calendar time and updating your status on communication platforms. For instance, a manager can block time for deep work and set their Slack status to “In deep work mode from 2-4 PM, expect delays,” helping minimize interruptions and improve productivity.
