Scenario

When teams struggle to maintain collective focus time

Our remote team decided to implement 'deep work Fridays' with no meetings or Slack to help everyone reset and focus, but half the team keeps scheduling 'quick calls' and the other half feels guilty for actually disconnecting. We wanted to slow down together but we're creating more anxiety about productivity and availability than before.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The shared intention to slow down collides with individual fears about productivity and the deep conditioning that equates availability with value.
