Feng Shui and Your Business
By Joy Abrams

Feng Shui principles can be utilized in your business to increase production and enhance relationships. Feng Shui should be taken in account to minimize negative areas, at your place of business and enhance areas to be more productive. In particular, the entrances, conference room’s sales and marketing areas are very important areas as that is where important decisions and negotiations occur. These are areas for promoting good chi as they have a great impact on the prosperity of your business.

By utilizing some very basic feng shui principles in laying out your office space, you can avoid some common mistakes that oftentimes result in less productivity, turnover, sales declines and unhappy employers.

Here is some basic advice that you need to be aware of:
Sit with a direct view to the entrance of the office.
Don’t face an employee or yourself with their back to the entrance
Avoid sitting in direct line with the door. It places you or your employee in the direct line of chi. This can have negative effects on productivity.
Utilize balanced lighting.
Avoid florescent lights or glaring lights.
Maintain a pleasant environment with adequate ventilation that is pleasing to the senses.
A qualified practitioner must analyze the balance of chi. This includes the inside and outside of the building.
Key employees must be positioned in their best directions.
While it is important to have a keen business sense to move your company forward, using Feng Shui will ensure that there are no roadblocks to creating the success that you and your company desires.
