A recent article from Concur outlines five tips for small business to increase employee productivity.
1. Use e-mail efficiently — encourage employees to turn off message notifications and only check email two to four times per day.
2. Choose the right management technology — make sure management technology fits within your budget, gives you return on investment, allows for new capabilities and works with existing technology.
3. Make time for big projects — take time to complete larger creative projects instead of filling in time with emails and reactive tasks.
4. Cultivate a positive attitude — when employee are happy they are more productive; they are happy when they're free to work as they choose with short breaks during the day.
5. Prioritize — help employees choose the most important projects to work on first and pass others along to their team members or leave until later.
