Exercise 7

Assume you are the human-resource director for a large, diversified company and you want to develop a policy about employee napping to boost productivity and reduce stress. Perhaps you might want to call in a few other managers to help you refine the policy. Plan for several possibilities: (a) how many members of a department or team are allowed to nap at the same time, (b) if you have a formal napping room, who is allowed to use the room at the same time, and (c) what priority will napping have in relation to taking care of urgent tasks.
