Corporate Seminars

Our research shows employees are spending 2 hours each workday accessing digital content that's unrelated to their jobs.  Social media is their biggest distraction.  This is killing productivity.  It's also causing conflict, as employees express resentment toward those wasting time.  And because people are distracted by their phones it's also causing serious accidents, which in turn cause injury and damage property.  To assist employers in addressing workplace digital distraction Screen Education offers 4 seminars.

Developing A Smartphone Policy  To Optimize Workplace  Productivity, Safety, and Harmony
This seminar provides supervisors, managers, and executives with a framework for developing a smartphone policy that minimizes accidents, reduces conflicts, and improves productivity.  It begins with a thorough review of our research on the impact of smartphone distraction on the workplace, and then uses a organizational change framework to show how to craft a smartphone policy that will work.  It closes with a review of implementation challenges, and of apps that can be used to assist with enforcement. 

Controlling Your Phone Use To Optimize Work Performance
This seminar starts off by providing employees with a deeper understanding of how excessive personal phone use at work impacts productivity, safety, and workplace relationships.  It then models helpful mindsets, strategies, and tactics to keep personal phone use under control in order to optimize work performance and organizational health.  Topics include holding other employees to a higher standard when it comes to smartphone use, and how controlling smartphone use at work is a form of insurance because it minimizes the financial risks you are placing on your employer.  



Screen Time & Personal Health
& Wellness
This course takes a more holistic "health & wellness" approach to teaching employees about the problem of digital addiction and how to address it in themselves and their loved ones. Topics include how technology addiction impacts social and emotional life, cognitive function, productivity and safety at work, child development, and family life.  Strategies and tactics for bringing screen time under greater control in all areas of life are covered, as well as "digital detoxification", broaching the topic with children, and enlisting the help of others.

How To Conduct An Effective
Digital Detox
Our research shows that when people take a digital detox they awaken  to the problems screens cause them,  which can  motivate  them to reduce their habitual screen use.  Our research  also has  identified the factors that are critical for you and your family to have a successful detox.  This seminar begins by explaining how a digital detox benefits you, the conditions necessary for a beneficial detox, the stages of a digital detox, the goal of each stage, how to get buy-in and support from others joining you on your detox, and what to expect when you end your detox.

Broad Solutions to Smartphone Addiction: Workplace Manager Survey Findings

This seminar presents the findings of our 2021 survey of workplace managers.  The survey examined managers' views on the problems smartphones cause in the workplace,  how employees feel about it, and how managers feel the problem should be addressed using bold, broad-based solutions.
