Sure, open office layouts are great for collaboration.  

But, have you ever had the one person in your office who overshares their every life story?

They're pretty easy to spot once you know what to look for. This person usually chit-chats about the latest episode of Game of Thrones, their kid's basketball game, or a way too personal medical issue.

HOWEVER, sometimes the distraction is not so easy to spot. Usually, this person says something along the lines of, "Do you have a minute?".

While very sneaky, this person is a distraction in disguise. 

The thing is, these open office spaces are killing your productivity! They welcome people to interrupt your work at all points of the day. So then, you're left feeling like you need to take your work home with you. 

I don't want that for you and I'm sure you don't either, so today's episode covers how to deal with an open office littered with distractions and distractors in disguise. 

To your journey,
