Organizational Well-Being Guidelines
Whether you are working remotely, on-site, or in a hybrid position, The Lawrence strives to adhere to these guidelines to support well-being:
- 12pm-1pm will be a “no meeting” block every day
- Continue campus guidelines of no meetings Friday afternoons 1-5pm
- Target a maximum of 60% of work hours in meetings
- Give others a 15 minute buffer between meetings when you book on their calendar–booking 45 or 75 minute meetings (instead of 60 or 90) could help this be possible
- Project teams should work together to decide what meetings help advance shared work and decision making and what might be extraneous
- Block off work time on your calendar (for project work or time-sensitive meetings that come up), don’t give that time away
- Respect people’s work times AND let them know when time sensitive matters arise
- Schedule emails to be sent only during recipient’s working hours (with default being M-F, 8am to 6pm)
