Mind-reading | Is brainwave monitoring really coming to your workspace and is it... a... good thing?

Everyone has their own way of arriving in the office. Some early. Some late. Some quietly and some like to let everyone know just how stressed they already are before the day has even got going. No-one works harder than them you know.

Imagine your everyday starts like this.

As you bundle into the office, still flustered from the commute and demonstrably brandishing your choice of artisan coffee (because you can’t function without it). You log-on, take a draw from your caffeine fix, and while you’re still engaging in office scuttlebutt, strap on a non-invasive EEG headband to monitor your brainwaves throughout the day.

Sound like science fiction? Sound like a nightmare?
