5. If you see someone is busy working, always ask: 'Is this a good time for you?' Don't assume they are available just because you are.
6. If you are interrupted, feel free to let someone know that you need time to finish what you are working on. Schedule a time to get together later that same day.
7. Avoid enabling people to continue operating out of an urgent mode with their constant interruptions.
8. Understand that we can be a positive force in facilitating this behavior by modeling the way we respond.
9. Use a 'People Page' to contain your thoughts, ideas and questions. Create a list of items you need to discuss with people rather than contacting them with every single item.
10.Designate particular times of the day that people have access to you to discuss pertinent information. Maintain a schedule of availability on your office door.
