While I agree with you completely, how do you remove interruptions from the workplace? How do you get buy in from everyone in the company? What if there is a client emergency?
Removing interruptions completely, isn’t easy. In our company, we’ve recently introduced little orange pylons which people can place on their desk when they don’t want to be disturbed. We can also set our internal Instant Messaging service to ‘do not disturb’. With regards to emergencies, we find that there is rarely a true client emergency which has to be dealt with in under an hour.

Greetings! I'm Andrew Spoeth, and here you'll find a mix-match of gems on B2B marketing, social media, PR and technology. My day job has me working with the marketing team at Marketo, one of the hottest SaaS companies in Silicon Valley. You'll also occasionally find me speaking at industry events, and co-moderating a weekly chat on Twitter for marketers called #B2Bchat.
