W. Edwards Deming

W. Edwards Deming

"The average American worker has fifty interruptions a day, of which 70 percent have nothing to do with work."

As a change leader most of what you do is an interruption to people. We ask for volunteers, we ask for opinions, we hold communication events, we send emails… How can you make your interruption valuable? How can you link your interruption to the work they do? How can you help people transition from your interruption back to their daily work so that they might be more receptive to the next interruption.
