A study by Virgin Pulse raises a critical question: Who are the 5 percent in your workplace who are never distracted at work? And how can they be replicated?

Virgin's study, Driven By Distractions: Why Employees' Focus Is Waning At Work & What You Can Do About It, says that 95 percent of 1,000 respondents said they were distracted during the workday.
