HR Guide to Managing Employee Priorities in a Chaotic Workplace

Our daily experiences as well as expert research and opinion are showing the days of “doing more with less” are officially gone. As HR professionals it is essential to understand the difficulties your employees are facing and equip yourself on how to help wisely invest their energy.

Some key points to remember:

  • Constant distractions – and our increasing distractibility – are facts of corporate life.
  • Multitasking produces the stress hormone cortisol and the fight-or-flight hormone adrenaline, both of which cloud thinking.
  • Pointless or rambling meetings sap energy and engagement.
  • Professionals spend nearly a third of their time on email – which by default defines their priorities – and over a third on routine tasks that could be performed by others.
  • 24/7 mobile technology makes “regular working hours” an antiquated notion.
  • “Execution-based” cultures make it hard to say “no.”
  • And, matrixed or loose reporting structures give rise to conflicting priorities.

It’s no wonder priority management is itself a pressing priority!
