On average, how much time each day does each employee lose due to email/information overload? Be sure to include time people spend:
- Dealing with being CC:d or BCC:d on a dozen messages and trying to figure out why.
- Using email when voice or in-person would be faster.
- Sending or receiving messages sent for butt-covering reasons, rather than forward-movement reasons.
- Decoding ambiguous, incomplete, or vague email from someone in power (someone other than you, of course; your emails are well-known to be complete, clear, and concise).
- Scanning and reading email that turns out to be irrelevant.
- “Multi-tasking” because each email shoves you into a different train of thought?
- Just calming down and re-centering from the anxiety of having a huge inbox backlog.
Email wastes hours and minutes of each employee's time each day.
