Guidelines of dealing with Interruptions
• In order to ensure your team do not have to interrupt you ,give them clear instructions
in the beginning.
• Make appointments to ‘discuss later’ if not urgent rather than stalling your work
• Create specific ‘availability’ times when you can be approached for advice and support.
• Work at home/away from the workplace when you need to focus on specific tasks
