Analyse my email workload from Gmail data. Daily counts, top senders, sample response times and time spent: [EMAIL_DATA]. What my role expects: [EXPECTATIONS].

Explain your method so I can repeat it next month: how you counted, which messages you excluded and how you calculated the median. If my data covers fewer than ten working days, say the figures are only indicative. Calculate average daily volume, the share from the top five senders, the median response time, the share answered within the expected time, and time per day, showing arithmetic and the gap against my expectation in hours and percent.

Identify categories I could reduce (notifications, newsletters, copied messages, internal updates) and design a two-week experiment with a measure of success and a review date. Do not treat speed as the only goal; discuss batching to protect deeper work. Note the sample size and limits. Return a table, and a message to colleagues who copy me too often asking when I should be included.

Invented data: 840 emails in 7 days = 120 a day. Notifications 336 (40 percent). Median response time 5 hours. Replies within 4 hours: 46 of 80 sampled = 57.5 percent. Time spent 3 hours a day.
Plan: filter notifications to a label read once a day; expected volume in the inbox falls by 336 / 840 = 40 percent. Reading: 40 percent of the inbox is notifications that need no reply, so a filter that labels them and skips the inbox cuts the daily count from 120 to 72. Median response time of 5 hours against a 4-hour expectation means 42.5 percent of sampled replies were late. Experiment: two scheduled email blocks for two weeks, then compare.
