New U.S. survey suggests Tuesday is the most productive day of the work week. Have a lingering project to finish or a business meeting you've been avoiding? An Accountemps survey released in December suggests you should finally tackle it today.
After the start of the week, the amount of work getting done seems to drop. Only 14 percent of those surveyed feel the most work gets accomplished on Wednesday, with Thursday and Friday tied for the least productive days. Max Messmer, chairman of Accountemps, said Mondays can be productive because many workers spend the day catching up from the previous week and planning the one ahead.
