Please sleep at work:

Oh, the lazy, hazy days of summer.  The perfect time to sleep at work.  You’ve never done that?  In the good old days when I had a regular job I napped at work.  I was a bachelor then, but that’s not why I needed sleep.  I knew napping improved my productivity.

Today many researchers and even a few companies agree.  Taking a nap increases your performance.  Good for you and good for your employer.

But note this: You don’t really have to spend money on frills like nap-rooms with sleep-pods to get the productivity benefits.  The only change that is needed is a change in attitude, your attitude, to sleeping on the job.

Your people will always sleep on the job.  It is up to you whether they waste their creativity on napping surreptitiously for their own benefit.  Or whether they focus their creativity for your benefit because you support napping at work.

Now be quiet, I’m napping here.
