Just wanted to say thanks for a great article and writing about the book. I think you're dead on in terms of having employees take a break to demonstrate you care about them as people as well as how well they work. I recently interviewed Jason Fried of 37 Signals fame about his new book, “Rework” where he has a lot of similar advice.
