• I guess this infographic (sales pitch actually) makes a few points, but I doubt most of the actual numbers cited.

    - The average employee checks their email 36 in an hour?

    But that's averages out to more than once every 2 minutes. Personally, I check mine about once every 10 minutes, and that assumes I'm not totally focussed on something. It could be once every 1/2 hour or hour.

    - 16 minutes spent refocusing after handling incoming email?

    If someone checks their email once every 2 minutes (see above), then this estimate of time to recover is pointless.

    - 39% slept during a meeting?

    Really? I'm surprised the employment rate for IT professionals to so high, because some managers would consider firing someone who slept through staff meetings.

    - 91% daydreamed during meetings and 96% missed meetings.

    OK, fair enough. Been there done that.
