One practical fix I’ve seen work: calendar firebreaks, at least two hours of deep work blocked daily, company-wide. Teams can stay focused by using agenda-first invites and a mandatory async-first policy. This approach supports collaboration without limiting it.
Also, quiet zones + soundproof pods in open offices aren’t luxuries; they’re productivity tools. We should fix the environment, not just the etiquette.
