How much are you willing to spend?

In late 2007 the research firm Basex carried out market research on the average time per day lost to "distractions" - in other words, to the inability to control collaboration with colleagues (“Information Overload: We Have Met the Enemy and He Is Us”, Jonathan B. Spira, David M. Goldes, March 2007, basex.com)

For the purpose of simplifying this entry here is what they found:

- Typically 2 hours of productivity per day is lost per knowledge worker

- The average cost per hour of a knowledge worker is $21

In other words,

The cost of "lost productivity for a company" would be $21 (Cost per Hour) X 2 (Hours per Day) X 20 (Days a Month) = a whopping $840 per month per knowledge employee.

This bring me back to the title of this entry,

How much are you willing to spend in order to increase productivity by 10%??? 25%??? 50%????
