How Offering Music Can Change Your Company
The workplace can often be a stressful, noisy, and congested environment. Issues like these lead to dissatisfaction among employees and/or customers, as well as decreased productivity, all of which affect your bottom line. One way to mitigate these challenges, and create a more effective and efficient workplace is providing music through a wireless audio streaming system. Research shows that music in the workplace leads to 3 key benefits:
Better Focus
Music can help people focus on individual tasks by blocking out surrounding chatter and noisy distractions. Music with a steady beat helps people develop a sense of rhythm when completing repetitive tasks, plus stimulation keeps the mind from stagnating during such assignments.
Improved Productivity
Music can pushes people’s imagination during reflection and brainstorming, leading to dynamic ideas and innovative solutions. People find inspiration from music, so the right song could be just what a project needs to reach a new level.
Cohesive Sense of Community
Keeping an environment fresh to suit the needs of people using the space over a long period of time is important for workplace productivity and relations. Listening to music heavily impacts mood and therefore affects decision making and how people interact with other. A study by Cornell University researchers revealed that happy, upbeat songs made listeners working in teams more pleasant, cooperative, and open to sharing. Tunes with a positive spirit encouraged utilitarian choices and boosted team awareness.
What’s also great about music is that it gets people in sync with each other, allowing them to find points of connection with coworkers. Music offers people something to bond over, giving employers an opportunity to build happy teams that charge into the day over a shared anthem! In addition, by using a wireless streaming solution you can curate what your employees are listening to – anything from contemporary music, to educational podcasts, to internal company updates can all be streamed directly to your team anywhere in the building.
