Participants do have to concentrate on a conference call so think about the time of day when your manager seems particularly focused. Do ask if they are in a different time zone to you.

Manage: Try scheduling e-mail checks every two hours to minimize time spent with the e-mail account open. Managing messages in bulk, but still in a consistent fashion, can help save time. If you don’t have e-mail folders, create some and sort messages as they are received. Doing too many things can actually waste time.
