Description
Summary:Increasing evidence suggests employees are turning to the nonprescribed use of stimulants to supplement their performance. We sit in a unique position regarding stimulants in the workforce. They are easily available, there is little stigma attached to use, and there is little information regarding the long-term safety effects of use.

The purpose of this JMI (Journal of Management Inquiry) Generative Curiosity article is to introduce readers to this literature and identify what we believe are the most important avenues of inquiry for management scholars.
