The average engineer switches tasks every 3 minutes.
Each switch costs 23 minutes of focus time.
These interruptions have a heavy cost on engineering teams!
In our latest podcast episode, we break down:
• Implementation strategies
• Common pitfalls
• Success metrics
• The science behind it all
No productivity hacks. Just practical experience.
