Good news for those rainy days that force us camp folks inside to do office work. According to recent research by several Harvard Business School professors, bad weather actually increases productivity. In both lab tests and in a large organization they found office productivity increases during bad weather. When it rains, we are less inclined to see being indoors as a problem. This increases attention and focus.
So the research tell us, when it rains, go in the office and be productive. Maybe it also justifies putting off office work on beautiful sunny days until a more productive (rainy) day.
