Introduction: the origin of "work naked" -- Why work naked? The eight work naked principles -- Principle 1: Trust -- Shedding the layers of complacency, fear of change, and resistance to new ways of working -- Principle 2: Trust -- Shedding the layers of management control, outdated performance measures, and mistrust -- Principle 3: Joy -- Shedding the layers of overwork, high stress, and sleep deprivation -- Principle 4: Individuality -- Shedding the layers of conformity, one-size-fits-all routines, and fixed work hours -- Principle 5: Equality -- Shedding the layers of hierarchy, status symbols, and dress codes -- Principle 6: Dialogue -- Shedding the layers of one-way communication, misunderstandings, and idea-hoarding -- Principle 7: Connectivity -- Shedding the layers of geographic boundaries, reliance on co-location, and misuse of technology -- Principle 8: Workplace options -- Shedding the layers of unproductive work environments, dreary home offices, and long commutes between them.
