\u00a0Have you thought about how will you minimise annoying distractions and interruptions that stop your flow and take up valuable time?<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0Last November @Fiona Spence came to speak to us about managing workplace drama. We recently caught up with her for tips on how to set yourself up for success this year. <\/span><\/p>\n

Below we\u2019ll share with you some of the top tips and techniques Fiona has developed to help you work more efficiently and on focus even better over this coming year.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fiona\u2019s top tips<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Whether you are working from home, or in an office, it\u2019s important to set firm and clear boundaries. When setting boundaries identify all the people who may be the source of an inconvenient interruption. Beyond your colleagues, customers, and suppliers if you are working from home you may need to take into account friends and family as well. Once you are clear on who might interrupt you (and how) you can start to set up your boundaries.<\/span><\/p>\n

3 Steps to Setting Bullet Proof Boundaries<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Be crystal clear on what is expected from you to meet your goals and obligations. Your boundaries will ensure you can meet these expectations. <\/span><\/p>\n

2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Ask yourself \u2018what boundaries do I need to set to meet these expectations and achieve these goals?\u2019 (For example, setting specific times when you won\u2019t be reading emails or receiving calls.)<\/span><\/p>\n

3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Ensure that anyone who may be affected by your boundaries understands them, accepts them, and respects them. When you share a boundary, it is important that you invest some time to explain why you have set it, why it is important to you, and the benefits to them and your\/their company. <\/span><\/p>\n

Having boundaries is a crucial element to avoiding unnecessary workplace dramas. Please comment below to share the types of boundaries you have set at work and look out for our upcoming poll.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n
