This week (02/1/10 to 2/7/10) Work Matters delves into the question of whether music in the workplace should be encouraged.
Does music improve a workplace? Should one person's choice of music be the only choice on the job? What does music do to a person's concentration?
This week's guest Joshua Leeds, is an expert in the field of psychoacoustics. He visits with Nan about the positive and negative effects of music and sound on a person's ability to concentrate and on their nervous system. In addition to being a sound researcher, music producer and educator, he is the author of The Power of Sound: How to Manage Your Personal Soundscape for a Vital, Productive & Healthy Life.
Also, Nan's colleague Beth Pelkofsky joins her to field listener questions in the regular segment Uncommon Sense.
