How Plants Boost productivity
30/03/2021
Plants are powerful. Neuroscience proves that they promote healthy, productive workplaces with better employee wellbeing and performance. We uncover five key ways natural foliage has a positive impact in your workspace…
1. MOOD, CONFIDENCE & CREATIVITY
Greenery inspires an open mind. And a positive mood makes it easier to think and problem solve. When we’re positive, we’re also better at getting along with others. Plants contribute to a happier, higher performing and more creative work environment.
2. SATISFACTION & CONCENTRATION
Enriching a workspace with plants can encourage a perceived air quality and feeling of satisfaction. If we’re more satisfied then we also have a better attention span and can concentrate more easily. Feeling content in the worksplace plays a big part in personal wellbeing and success.
3. PRODUCTIVITY
Green workspaces inspire more engagement naturally, which stimulates productivity. Research has also shown that tasks are completed faster and more effectively in a lush, green environment.
4. STRESS
When we’re positive, satisfied and productive, we’re relaxed. And spending time selecting and tending to plants in between work can also help to lower stress. In today’s fast-paced working world, plants have a calming influence on hard-working employees.
