"An executive we worked with recently hadn't even made it to his office when the requests started flooding his inbox. A conflict between colleagues. An underperformer wanting to discuss a promotion."
"An ask for approval to attend a conference that felt only loosely related to the work. And one message that simply read 'Do you have a minute?' - the kind that can turn your calendar into triage."
Executives frequently encounter a barrage of requests as soon as they begin their day. These can include conflicts between colleagues, discussions about promotions, and approval requests for events that may not align with their work. Such demands can quickly turn a busy schedule into a chaotic situation, requiring immediate attention and prioritization.
