Einstein really said it
Albert Einstein was thoroughly convinced that working with music leads to increased productivity. While his endorsement may carry weight, you may require additional evidence to become convinced. Here are some additional facts:
- Background music improves data entry quality for 92 per cent of people.
- Pop music makes 58 per cent of people work faster. And ... they make 14 per cent fewer mistakes in the process.
- Classical music improves accuracy by 12 per cent.
- Dance encourages test readers to work 20 per cent faster.
Did you know that during WWII, the BBC broadcast customized music to uplift the morale of soldiers and workers in arms factories?
