Do you listen to music at work? Experts often present conflicting data on whether or not listening to music has a positive or negative affect on productivity.
Some researcher indicate that productivity is increased by 6.3% for all jobs. Other reseachers indicate music listening workers using computers were less productive then their counterparts who do not listen to music while working.
Is there a correct answer? Only you and your company can tell.
I usually have one ear phone in my ear (probably not very good for balance), but that way I am not blocking out communication.
My music? All sorts... Teena Marie, Gap Band, Michael Jackson, Elton John, Micheal Bubly, James Fortune, N'Sync, John Mayer, Pink, Marvin Sapp, Goo-Goo dolls, Stevie Wonder, Pink, JT, alot of oldies (Lakeside, Gap Band, Cameo) and a host of others...
Do you listen to music at work? If so, what genre or artist makes you more productive?
