Miracle of Coffee Breaks
Employees rejoice. Despite what supervisors and management might what us to think, the value of coffee breaks in general to overall productivity coffee breaks should not be underestimated. Short coffee breaks spaced at regular intervals of around 15 minutes during the workday can create an enjoyable work atmosphere that allows people to feel good about their jobs, and reducing the so called workplace stress even further.
Coffee breaks can also smooth the progress of much needed socialization between co workers; forge them into a more solid unit working towards common company goals. Studies have also associated coffee with enhanced alertness and memory. This, in addition to the social act of drinking coffee together is probably why it’s a good idea to offer coffee during meetings. Not only does it make the general mood lighter, but your brain becomes more receptive to new ideas. All in all, work is still work but with coffee as a communal lubricant, work tends to get done with less tension and that’s certainly good for business.
