In adversarial work relationships which I would assume any is with working for Trump, I would assume showing up and hounding employees increases productivity (from an already low level), but that's because it's already a shitty place to work.

Anyone that works in a reasonably friendly place, with decent motivators and a good boss, both your goals are aligned, because you want to get shit done as much as your boss does. At that point giving the employee what he/she wants is what you as a boss wants.

I'm lucky in that I'm my own boss, even if clients can sometimes have specific demands. Thankfully they generally only hire me because they trust that our goals are aligned, meaning:

I get paid for results, they get results from me choosing my optimal environment. Win-win.
