1) Do you consider laziness to be more of a personality trait, or more of a motivational state that we experience from time-to-time? Why? Is there are potential that it could be a little bit of both?

2) Do you agree or disagree with Michael Lewis that there is an upside down to laziness? Why or why not?

3) How do you think managers and organizations can "manage laziness" so that the negative effects would be minimized and the positive effects maximized? What sorts of programs and initiatives could an organization implement that would help do so?
