<p>That&#8217;s right. They OK&#8217;d a company policy that employees at the British firm could work naked on Fridays. They were convinced to do so by a consultant specializing in business psychology.</p>
<p>Psychologist David Taylor explained to <em>The Sun</em> newspaper that he recommended working in the buff so that employees would lose their inhibitions and talk more openly and honestly with one other.</p>
<p>&#8220;Inviting an organization to go naked is the most extreme technique I&#8217;ve used,&#8221; he conceded. &#8220;It may seem weird but it works. It&#8217;s the ultimate expression of trust in yourself and each other.&#8221;</p>
<p>Goofy idea, right? Well &#8230;</p>
<p>Since the inception of Naked Fridays, business at the company has improved. And in fact, they&#8217;ve had to hire two new employees to handle the rush.</p>
<p>We, however, do assume that all employees there are a lot more careful about consuming hot beverages and sharing chairs.</p>
<p>And what do you think Naked Fridays would do for morale at your company?</p>
