Plenty of people are now back to work after their Christmas holidays that were filled with lazy mornings, hearty turkey dinners, and masses of chocolates; making these first couple weeks back in the office lethargic at best.
Unless you work for an airline or in retail, your business is probably half as productive as usual this time of year.
Tom Klett works with a consulting firm, Watson Wyatt. He says many companies are as much as 40 to 50 percent
less productive right now, as some people are still out on holidays, and those that are in the office aren't very motivated.
Since so many managers are away, some employees can sneak off to the mall to shop the sales or return unwanted gifts. Still, Klett says companies increasingly see such holiday liberties as all part of the cost of doing business.
