There are two ways to allocate this time: everyone on the team gives a certain amount of time each day to handling interruptions OR one or two people on the team are committed full-time for a cycle to handling interruptions. In either case, if the amount of actual time spent on interruptions is less than the amount of time available, then that difference of time must be used carefully. Generally, the best use of this extra time is to work on resolving the root causes of interruptions.
The rules that been implemented in the start of the project will be enough to solve the problem
Over the years i very simply tell the intrupter one moment and then get to a stopping point and then answer their questions
Leak of knowledge of the team that leads to that they can't take self desicion
Set rules, and beyond that tell them politely that their issues / queries will be looked into once the job on hand is completed.
No team member should sit idle. Yes, short breaks between work is absolutely fine. Proper allocation of tasks, setting a proper work plan with time limits, helping team members if in case there is a requirement & monitoring their performance will take care of interruptions at work.
Empahsis the work place disciplinary codes and its violation codes with action descrition in public displays where such interruptions are happening
I believe in the theory of reward and punishment, and also believe in the theory of amputation of the corrupt member so as not to spoil the rest of the team
If the interruption or absence of a project is dealt with according to the laws and regulations and the company's system of rebates
If it is repeated, a shift to a non-wetting function will be carried out by the wheel
If, however, the sequence of sanctions is followed until the termination of his services, the state of non-compliance
The action will depend on the type of interruption, such as if the interruption from a fellow team member is because you might be doing something incorrectly and the fellow member is actually guiding you the correct procedure, this is fairly fine and accept the correction thanking the helping person. While in case of other interruptions that are basically distracting you from your work, you may politely ask the person to excuse you as you have to finish your work. Similarly if the distraction through some high noise of any sort within the work area and being produced by one of your fellow team members then best way is to approach the person and politely request him or her to stop making that noise as it is disturbing you and others and accordingly hampering in performance of your duties.
The important thing to note that the team only operates efficiently if ay strengthenll members are operating at 100% capacity. Therefore, all memebrs have to buy in to the vision that "the whole is more than the sum of its parts". By priorising activities, members of the team can plan accurately their movements, and can thus spare time for fellow team members, in order to eventually strengthen the team even more in the long run. This will empower staff to also lead and motivate and become better leaders going forward.
The Best way to deal with interructions at work is to arrangement an unofficial meeting with other team members to discuss all possibilities to remove interruptions
