301-Vacation
from Clintcast · host Clint Maun
Today, per a listener request, Clint ponders the key facets of the ‘vacation’. We all have different ideas on what types of activities/lengths of time/etc constitute a vacation. Some prefer longer, more infrequent breaks, others frequent short bursts of long weekends. Whatever the preference, the key takeaway must be a period of recharging whereby the vacationee gets a boost of renewal and fresh energy. If the vacation period is spent doing energy draining activities, then little, if any, is gained upon return to the job. Likewise, it is critical for leadership to be not only supportive of vacation time, but insistent on advancing the welfare of the employee, if for no other reason than a positive vacation period enables higher productivity on the other end. What’s your take on vacation? Stir it up!
