Have a Break, Have a Meeting.
KitKat turned a meeting into the break: a Microsoft Teams call running 24/7 that employees could join whenever they needed a pause, so they looked busy while they rested.

التحدي
The entry says 68% of employees feel they don't get enough uninterrupted time, and research suggests they're disturbed every two minutes. The only time people are reliably left alone is when they're in a meeting.
الفكرة
Publicis Middle East built a call that looks exactly like a real meeting, with a blocked calendar, a shared screen and moving charts and slides, hosted by actor and voiceover artist Elie Iskandar. Attendees got a KitKat promo code, CALLKK. It launched for working professionals in the UAE on social media, mainly Meta, and spread through PR.
