What would the world be like if we ran our companies naked? I try to adopt this approach as much as possible at Duport.
Reasons to run a naked business:
- Resources
No one will borrow your chair anymore and you may even find your stationery is less likely to go astray.
- Distraction
Top distraction technique for unpopular announcements.
- Free tanning
Make good use of your computer monitor radiation.
- Economising
How can you chip in for that birthday present when you keep your wallet in your trousers?
- Time management
No more ironing or deciding what to wear in the mornings.
- PR
Let’s face it no one will ever forget you.
- Staff motivation
Casual Friday will have to take on a whole new meaning.
- Saving the planet
Less washing and no requirement for air conditioning.
- Health and Safety
No more working with hazardous substances.

There is a serious side to running a naked business. By this I really mean stop spending so much time protecting yourself, treat everybody equally and give information honestly and freely. If this is reciprocated you will work with staff, customers and suppliers to achieve amazing results. Naturally (get it) you need to exercise some caution with regards to how much knowledge could be passed on to your competitors.
Does anyone else have any positive reasons for running a naked business, keep them clean please!

I guess it would also be more interesting if your business goes t*ts up!
