Why More Companies Should Have a Sabbatical Policy

HBR IdeaCast
Here to break down work sabbaticals and how employees and employers alike can best go about them is DJ DIDONNA. They have a backlog of folks who actually need a break, which can backfire because folks will be maybe less likely to return to work as opposed to being preemptive and trying to retain their best talent, refresh them, give them a break, and let them do things outside of work that are important to them. CURT NICKISCH: A lot of companies though, and I know this from reading your research, a lot of companies want people to take a break and other companies want people to be productive in different ways or maybe come in and work with some different teams, but you’re saying it really should be the break.
