Question:
Increasingly, many professionals are tired of disruptions caused by smart phones during meetings. Nancy Flynn, executive director of the ePolicy Institute and author of The Handbook of Social Media, has this suggestion: “Require employees to turn off mobile devices during business-related meetings, seminars, conferences, luncheons and any other situation in which a ringing phone or tapping fingers are likely to disrupt proceedings or interrupt a speaker’s or participant’s train of thought.”
Organizations are beginning to establish policies on smartphone use in meetings. Assume that your team has been asked to develop such a policy. Your boss would like your team to develop a one-page policy that includes a set of guidelines that spell out exactly how smart phones should and should not be used in the workplace.
