Any person who has ever worked in an office will appreciate
the fact some office set ups tend to be more productive than others. While
overall productivity is dependent on a number of variables - one can agree that
the office environment plays a big part in it. By office environment here, I
mean the equipment furniture and other aid that help a worker to achieve the
give task.
Some things are a given in any office set up – comfortable furniture,
suitable lighting, efficient computers and telecom equipment – to name a few.
The presence of these things is sufficient for most tasks in an office. However,
for those willing to go the extra mile and further boost office productivity, a
number of gadgets are available. While some of these gadgets can perform extra
tasks, some just add further comfort to the working conditions and make life
easier for workers by adding some zing to work!
Here is a list of five gadgets that can add some pizzazz to
your normal work routine, enhance office productivity and help the office
workers to accomplish more in a normal working day –
Portable Projectors
A portable projector is a valuable companion, especially
when you need to make a lot of reports in PPT slides, or make presentations to
clients who might give you only a small time window. Consider a literal “elevator
pitch” scenario – wouldn't you be better equipped to convince the client if you
had a pocket projector, that you can simply whip out of your pocket and add considerable
weight to your words?
Card Scanner
In any business, managers tend to get a lot of visiting
cards. The number of cards may increase if you are in a position of making
crucial buying decisions, and a lot of people visit you, and then leave you
with a sheaf of visiting cards to handle. Not everyone is hugely organized to
docket even visiting cards properly, and even if you are, the sheer number of
such cards may overwhelm you. In that case, a card scanner is a valuable accessory
to have – just swipe the card through the slot – and you have everything stored
electronically. A number of card scanners can easily sync with Outlook – helping
you further.
Cable Management Solutions
Cables are the bane of a desk worker – and with panoply of
devices to manage – monitor, printer, keyboard etc. – some desks may become a
positive mess of cables. Not only this looks shabby, but it sometimes becomes
difficult to track which cable belongs to which device. In situations like these,
a proper cable management system may just be the thing that you need to
organize your desk.
Desktop Coffee Maker
There is no denying that an office worker will need his/her
daily fix of caffeine – in the form of mostly boring and horrible tasting stock
office coffee. But really, it doesn't have to be this way – get a better
tasting coffee from you’re your own personal coffee maker. You say that your
coffee machine is too big to bring to the office? I hear you – and here is the
solution – get a desktop coffee maker, which will brew your potion one cup at a
time.
Smart TV
A Smart TV will be an ideal addition to a modern, connected
office that understands the value of proper communication and information dissemination.
Also, a Smart TV is a gadget that can provide the right mix of work and play to
the office workers. And if you opt for something like a LG Smart TV, you can
get multiple abilities like Skype connectivity, social networking, playback of
media files, accessing websites, streaming and sharing of content from laptops –
all wirelessly of course.
