The Memo

            
            
            
            
             Subject: Improving Productivity and Creativity.
             Achieving and maintaining a high productivity level is crucial for any successful firm. Creativity is especially important to maintain at a high level in an architectural firm such as our own. Sometimes around midday the human body begins to fall short on energy and this translates into decreasing productivity and creativity. A great way to combat this midday slouch is with the addition of a nap room.
             Nap rooms are not a new concept in the business world. The very respectable Wall Street Journal ran an article on the trend of nap room in the business world. At MacWorld Magazine, nap rooms have been installed since 1986 and they definitely must not be interfering with their work since 15 years later they are still in business. Also MacWorld Magazine is considered one of the best Mac computer magazines in the business and a reason for this must be that their employees have a high level of productivity and creativity. Another example that would appeal to us is the architectural firm Gould Evans Goodman Associates who plan to add space for a nap room to its offices. They are also one of the top architectural firms in the Kansas City area.
             A high creativity level among our architects is crucial if we are to remain a competitive firm in the San Francisco Bay area. Our clients demand the best and most creative designs for their buildings. This cannot be achieved with creativity at mediocre levels. A good nights rest can only take you so far. As for coffee, caffeine looses its effect after a short while and after a few cups one begins to stop feeling perked up. The solution to this is installing a nap room. A 15-minute nap can refresh a person better then your average 4 cups of coffee. Our architects will not only boost their much needed creativity level but their increased productivity will allow them to perform more tasks during their normal workday.
