In the office environment the traditional time measurement devices I believe are no longer appropriate.
It is time (no pun intended) to replace all watches and clocks with a much more practical measuring device…..yes, it is the “coffee break”!
Lets think about the advantages of this new system of measurement:
- The espresso: as the name suggests, a quick meeting where all participants get straight to the point, no mucking around….this is a serious discussion
- The long black: as this drink has additional volume, and is quite hot, it cannot be consumed quickly. It is perfect for those longer meetings where cooperation and engagement is required.
- The “large mug”: this is a serious meeting that cannot be rushed, typically an all day activity.
I’m sure you can think of many other coffee variations, but for me, this is the perfect time solution…….cheers!
