In this episode of Reality Bytes, Sean, Oriana, Dina, Tim, and Tom dive into the ever-present challenge of digital distraction in the workplace. From smartphones and smartwatches to endless Teams notifications, our panelists share their personal "kryptonite" when it comes to staying focused.

The discussion explores how IT can help—or hinder—productivity, whether through well-designed tools, thoughtful policies, or just adding to the digital noise. Tim breaks down practical strategies to combat context switching, while Oriana reflects on the tension between deep work and the always-on culture. The panel also examines company culture’s role in reinforcing (or resisting) these habits and whether IT should play a part in managing work-life balance.

Tune in for an insightful, relatable conversation—and hopefully, not as just another distraction!
