Scenario

When your team can't disconnect from work communication despite wanting boundaries

My team says they want better work-life balance but everyone responds to Slack within minutes even on weekends and evenings. I'm the manager and I've tried modeling boundaries by not messaging after hours, but people keep working around the clock and I don't know if they feel pressured or if they genuinely can't stop.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A group that claims to want digital boundaries often reinforces the very patterns they say they want to escape.
