Daydreaming at work is far from being a nightmare for career prospects,
according to a new survey.
Chief executives admitted to having their heads in the clouds longer
during a working day than other employees.
Experts also reckon that daydreaming can result in more-creative thinking
and could lead to career success.
The survey, from online employment network workthing.com, involved
questioning more than 3,000 internet users.
It showed:
73% of chief executives admitted daydreaming at work, while nearly
half of middle management and the self-employed said they never daydreamed;
72% of directors and senior managers were daydreamers;
Of the chief executives who admitted mentally nodding off, more than
a third did so for at least 30 minutes and some for as long as two hours.
Psychologist Dr Raj Persaud said: "We shouldn't be surprised that
company leaders have been spotted at the top of the daydreaming stakes."
