People With ADHD Do One Month's Less Work Per Year, Study Finds
- jamesbritt 15y ago"So much work is being lost that the researchers recommend employers consider screening staff for ADHD and providing treatment for those affected, because it would be more cost-effective for their businesses." It would be cost-effective to match people to the kind of work for which they are best suited. I used to be in management, and one of the things I learned was how to reward or punish people. And the funny thing was that what was a rewards for one person was punishment for another. For example, doing inventory on all the first-aid kits in a building. There are some types who love this. They get great satisfaction form the easy predictability and sure measure of success. Others hate it, find it mind-numbing (that would be me). That first person, if you give them a task with loosely-defined goals and a subject measurement of success, get antsy and tense.
