Too Many Interruptions?

If you are interrupted too often, figure out why. Are you:

  • Too slow to close your door, forward your phone, and turn off email?
  • Withholding information from others?
  • Failing to develop and empower others?
  • Inserting yourself into too many processes?
  • Insisting on perfection?
  • Discouraging the decisions and initiative of others?
  • Unclear in establishing objectives and priorities?
  • Sloppy in delegation?
  • Letting others interrupt repeatedly without thinking first?
  • Unsure of your own priorities?
  • Biting off more than you can chew?
  • Afraid you may be extraneous?

You are not indispensable. So why are others acting as if you are? What are you doing to cause your own interruptions?
