-
Share your work calendar with people in your household to minimize interrupts.
-
Share your calendar with team members and partners so others understand when you are available.
-
Set your status in Teams and customize who you need to see messages from right away, and those that can wait.
-
Prevent unnecessary distractions by managing notifications in Microsoft Teams activities, channels, and on mobile set focus hours and quiet time in Windows.
-
Use automatic out of office messaging in Outlook to block off time when you are not available.
