Get Your Team to Work with Copernic: The 7 Secrets to Mastering Workspace Productivity
Whether your workplace employs three people or three hundred people, keeping your team on top of their work is incredibly important. You can’t settle for mediocre when it comes to productivity. It is imperative that all your employees are on top of their game—but it’s also important that workplace leaders help employees reach their potential by creating an organized and productive workspace for each team member.
When an employee’s workspace does not lead to productivity, you’re going to lose money and you’re going to lose talent. So, let’s talk more about why workplace productivity is incredibly important. We’ll even reveal seven secrets to achieving maximum productivity levels. By the end, you’ll understand how using Copernic can help you facilitate a more productive work environment.
Why is a Productive Workspace Crucial?
When your employees have access to a workspace that is clean, organized, and streamlined, they’re going to be able to do their best work. In other words, maximum workplace productivity can only be achieved when each employee can do their work from a top-notch workspace. Ensuring that each employee has a reliable place to work from can lead to you:
- Getting higher quality finished products
- Having employees that will get more done
- Attracting higher-paying clients
- Fostering a more positive work environment for employees
What Are the Seven Secrets to a More Productive Workspace?
Now that you’re familiar with what having productive workspaces can do for your company, you need to know how to create a more productive workspace for everyone on your team. Although it might seem daunting to increase productivity by making changes to your company’s workspaces, it’s possible. Here’s what you can do to:
1) Always Keep Workspaces Clean
There’s nothing more distracting than seeing trash from yesterday’s lunch left out, clutter thrown all over the desk, and thirty books unreturned to the bookshelves. Whether your employees are working in the office or working from home, you need to ensure that they have clean and tidy workspaces available to them.
2) Focus on the Design of the Space
Don’t underestimate how important it is to have a workspace that is aesthetically pleasing. Invest in having high-quality art on the walls, for example. If your employees are working from home, give them each a small honorarium to purchase art or plants for their office space. It is proven that having a nice-looking space can lead to more productivity.
3) Invest in High-Quality Furniture
Between standing desks, ergonomic chairs, and high-quality computer stands, there are many different things you can purchase to improve the quality of your office space. Employees cannot be expected to sit in uncomfortable spaces all day.
4) Encourage Break Time
Again, if your employees are working from the office, have a space that is designated for break times. Whether you have an in-office gym, a meditation room, or another amenity, ensure your employees can step away from their work comfortably.
5) Let in the Sunlight
Having a productive workspace means prioritizing having an office space with lots of natural light. When employees can see the sun, they’re going to be in a better mood, more likely to produce better work, and all-around better employees.
6) Have Snacks, Drinks, and Coffee Nearby
Employees cannot work hard on an empty stomach, and they certainly cannot work hard without a cup of coffee or two in the morning. To have the most productive team possible, put out complementary snacks and drinks in the office.
7) Invest in the Most Up-to-Date Computers and Software
Employees cannot be expected to be efficient when they are not provided with the tools they need to succeed. In an office space, the right tools must include a performing computer and the right software for the job at hand.
How Can Copernic Increase Your Workplace Productivity?
When your employees get to work each day, they’re going to be spending a lot of time on their computers. It’s almost certain that they’re going to be spending a lot of time using files on their computer, too, so they can’t be burdened with using taxing file search procedures. Whereas traditional in-computer search features are difficult to use—thereby decreasing productivity—Copernic can improve the productivity of your company. Here’s how:
- Employees Can Search Multiple File Types: Whatever file types (170+) your company uses can be searched with ease. Don’t worry about losing obscure file types because Copernic can search many different things.
- You Can Use Copernic While Doing Other Things: Need to search the internet or type in a Word Document while you’re using Copernic? No problem. While Copernic is searching for the files you need, you can do whatever else you need to do on your computer.
- It’s Easy to Use: The intuitive and streamlined interface ensures that your team isn’t spending hours, or even days, looking for the files they need. Instead of searching for a long time, your team can search in seconds. This leads to more work getting done.
