Many people order only boxes of black pens with the occasional blue and red box of pens. Those other colors of pens aren’t just for when you were twelve, they are incredibly useful in the work place.
Colored pens are very effective for organization and memory retention. Studies have shown that there are several different ways you can use color to improve your performance.
It helps you remember what everyone said and who said it. Writing down notes based off of who said what is a great way to keep track of different segments of a meeting.
