Interesting point of view - it makes sense to encourage participation in non-work-related communities of practice because skills and aptitudes from these hobbies transfer themselves to the work environment - an "intellectual osmosis across organizational structures and hierarchies." What's interesting is that this article thereby also provides a good argument for a broader education as opposed to a narrow education focused on job training.
