Feeling the impact of communication overload? Some tips to help you stay on top: Schedule regular times to check messages, rather than reacting to every notification. Use your settings to prioritise important messages and mute less urgent ones. There is no such thing as too many folders or labels. Create a filing system that works for you, and use it! Feeling overwhelmed or like you're falling behind, take a break to help you refocus. On the flip side be mindful of how much noise you're creating for others when communicating. Be direct and clear. Avoid unnecessary details. Consider urgency... is a response needed or is it for information only? Choose the best channel. Sometimes a chat message is better than an email, or another meeting!
