My Google Calendar's 'me-time' sprawl is over thanks to 'Focus Time'
Google Calendar's Focus Time feature provides enterprise organizations with automated meeting protection and notification management, enabling knowledge workers to reclaim deep work time by automatically declining conflicting meetings and muting distractions during designated blocks. With research showing employees lose an average of 23+ minutes recovering from each interruption, implementing Focus Time across Workspace accounts can significantly improve productivity and employee well-being while reducing calendar fragmentation. This capability is particularly valuable for IT leaders seeking to establish organizational policies around protected work time and reduce the cumulative productivity loss from constant meeting interruptions.

The “me-time” I tried to create in my calendar for years kept getting used up by meetings and quick calls. A twenty-minute writing block would become fifteen, then ten, then gone.
