Sleeping on job is more productive, reports this article.
The world is quickly waking up to the power of the nap. In New York, wellness centre Yelo rents private sleeping cabins out at $22 per 30-minute nap. At Munich Airport, a solution called Napcabs offers glowing sleeping stations for about 15 euro an hour. And in Japan where not working is not cool, executives slip away to napping salons or tight 2m x 1m x 1.25m spaces in capsule hotels to snore.
A good interesting read.
Another inspirational and informative article about Narayana Murthy's thoughts on leadership, running Infosys and some other business aspects.
You need leaders who are courageous because you need leaders to dream big, you need courage of conviction, you need courage to take bold steps when there are so many naysayers. Second, you must have high learnability because you have to take decisions quickly (snaps his fingers). Third, you must be able to communicate reasonably well, because leadership is all about creating a wonderful image of [the] future of the company and unless you can communicate reasonably well, you cannot rally, get behind people. Third, you must have a good value system and you must lead by example, because without [a] value system people won’t buy your dream. Leaders must be confident, which is the ability to admit I could be wrong, it is the ability to recruit someone smarter than me, it is the ability to participate in team work. Leaders must be human, in other words they must show emotions and not hide mistakes, they must not seem synthetic or flawless.
Hopefully you will enjoy these as much as I did.
