Won't asking people to wear these sensors, and the subconscious feeling that you are being tracked automatically cause you to not interact as much?
Are the conclusions really as reliable as they claim it to be?
I do agree that there are a lot of people whose productivity takes a hit because of increased distractions and they would prefer to ensure that whatever time they do get is used well (and not spent in going to talk to others). But I feel that the study seems to push their conclusion onto you without highlighting other factors that could lead to the same observations.
