About This Book
Constantly growing innovation and competitive pressure, the consistent development towards knowledge-intensive and sedentary activities, as well as the effects of an aging workforce put companies under pressure to sustainably build up the cognitive performance of their employees and to strengthen them in the long term. This research shows that physical activity - used strategically - can improve the cognitive performance of employees in innovation-relevant dimensions. On this basis, company movement training in the format of the traditional movement break was reinterpreted and further developed. The results suggest that the developed 15-minute exercise program represents an important measure for modern business enterprises due to its time efficiency and its effectiveness on cognitive abilities. Through the short, targeted movement sequences, specific sub-areas of the higher mental abilities can be increased in the short and medium term. This explosive nature suggests that the positive effects of physical activity should be reflected in the long-term work context and used as a strategic factor for prevention and promotion of cognitive skills.
